[QUOTE="Bwight, post: 1460927, member: 278659"] Sorry, I did purchase the machine new directly from Apple at the end of 2010. When I swapped out the hard drives there was the thermo-sensor plug present and I attached it. The hard drive I purchased was exactly like the one in the machine.....I did that so that installation would be as simple as possible. I'm not real computer savvy but I figured I was smart enough to follow directions.....obviously I'm not. 10.4 wouldn't be shipping on new machines in 2010 would it? I tried the discs I thought were to my 27 inch on this computer (an older silver iMac hand me down the kids use) and the hardware test worked. Seems that I have the discs for every mac I've ever owned EXCEPT for the 27 inch. No idea what to do now. [/QUOTE]
