[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1611354, member: 56379"] There weren't any recovery disks. Mac OS Lion was the first OS version without disks. If you needed or wanted to try using a disk of some sort...then you would want to purchase an OS 10.6 Snow Leopard OS install disk: [url=http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard]Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.)[/url] Yes...firmware passwords can be a BIG pain in the butt! Did you purchase the computer recently? If so, maybe you can still contact the seller to see if they can give you the password. Hopefully you purchased it from the computers actual previous owner...and not someone who sells these by the dozen (because this type of seller will have no idea). I'm also assuming that you did some internet searchs regarding Apple computers & firmware passwords. A firmware password is very possibly what you are dealing with. - Nick [/QUOTE]
