[QUOTE="johndierks, post: 13835"] I just found a beige g3 out by the trash at my work. I brought it inside, and plugged it in. It booted to a flashing question mark. Upon further inspection, I discovered it doesn't have a hard drive. I've got a hard drive I can throw in there, but I don't have any software for it. What would I need to get this guy running again? Can I find the software for free? Which OS can I run on it? How should I format the drive before I put it in? It's a 266Mhz, 512k cache 96MB RAM / 24x CD / Zip Drive / AV in/out [/QUOTE]
