When you installed 9.2 it has to be a universal install or a install for that Imac. Something about the way or the CD you made with the OS9 on it is not right.check the firmware version in Open Firmware: immediately after powering-on your iMac, hold down the 4 keys: Apple-Option-O-F. At the top of the screen you should see the Boot ROM version and the date. The version numbering is a bit odd. Here are the common firmware versions for the tray-load iMac:3.0.f3, build date 12/02/983.0.f10, build date 03/05/993.0.f2, build date 04/23/99 (this is the 1.2 firmware update)3.0.f3, build date 07/16/99 (if you have this then you are really up-to-date; no further action required!)</blockquote>
