[QUOTE="flowerytshirt, post: 1020377, member: 147985"] The Henry hoover to get all the dust out of it :D If the hard disk had been wiped (which makes sense as it was originally in an accountancy office), would it still come up with password protection? (Apols if this is a stupid question.) I think it's the OS 9 disc that I've got (without going to the car to check - it's cold out there!), though it won't reset the password, hypothetically it should still be able to boot up from the disc by holding down C? Cuz if it's not doing that, would I be right in thinking it won't do it from any other disc, whether it's OS X or nor? Thanks for replying :) [/QUOTE]
