[QUOTE="Mac SK, post: 1143265, member: 21908"] If it starts a pop and crackle sound then you got problems. Leave the HD alone and use a firewire or USB for storage. Does it have OSX on it now? Remember you have to upgrade the firmware if if still has OS9 on it before you install OSX. I just took a Lime green one to the thrift store I got out of a dumpster...had a power supply issue,the monitor would not lite. Took out the HD and memory first..did have good case parts. [/QUOTE]
