[QUOTE="PreacherOfSin, post: 57704"] I am a newb to macs. I just got a G4 Dual 1 GHz (mirrored-drive doors) on ebay and it came with the HD wiped clean. now i need to install OS 9. I dont have an Apple keyboard. I have a normal usb keyboard and mouse plugged in. I got the cd in the drive, which I had to put in by manually opening the door with the emergency release (there is no eject button on the drive... brilliant). I tried to boot w/ the CD (holding the C key)... nothing. The keyboard does not even seem to be responding (Num lock does not light up, etc.) Please help end my pain. [/QUOTE]
