Hey there,
i just got a iMac G3 DV400 Grape from one of my friends. (M5521 i think)
It had OS 9.2 on it, and i wanted to use it with tiger.
Before installing tiger, I replaced its 10gigs hard drive with a 40gigs hd. I've done this with the guide from Replace the Hard Drive on a G3 iMac (iMac G3 DV)
Anyway, after replacing the hard drive, I turned on the mac, heard the opening sound but... No display. HDD and the other things spin, but that's all.
I immediately put the old drive back on but no change. The situation remains the same.
Fyi, while changing the hdd, I unplugged the powercable.
Any opinions? Right now, the iMac is open. No display, I'm not sure if it's working but the CRT is not, or it's not just the display, also the whole system too. All i can hear is spinning hdd and the other little noises from the system.
Thanks in advance.
