[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1406565, member: 56379"] Can you verify what is & isn't installed in this computer...so we know for sure? Does it have: - a hard drive in it? - an optical drive in it? - ram? - video card? - Does it have an OS installed on the HD? Also...did your friend know what this computer was or wasn't doing before it began gathering dust in the back room? This may help us to focus on the proper area. - Nick p.s. By the way you mentioned an IDE hard drive above...Mac Pro's use SATA HD's.:) [/QUOTE]
