[QUOTE="thewk, post: 898220, member: 88342"] Removing hard disk is pretty easy in G5-based iMac. I think you should remove hard disk (or atleast data cable) and try boot from OS X CD/DVD disc. When you press C while booting the machine and with the disc in the drive, it should then attempt to boot from the disc. If it is unable to boot even from CD/DVD it could more than just the hard disk. [/QUOTE]
