[QUOTE="Soulwar, post: 753226, member: 46986"] Using FireWire mode, without the install disk 1st, will allow you to format it. Make sure it's using APM not GUID. (also, extended/journaled) then follow what I posted before. If it doesn't, then the HDD could be bad or you're not using a retail (PPC) install disk. (black not gray disk) FireWire disk mode will allow you to bypass the broken optical drive. Give it a try. [/QUOTE]
