[QUOTE="platinum, post: 395046, member: 31270"] HI! new to the forums, great to be here. :D i have a problem with my imac G3. i got it off of a friend, and it boots into os x, but it's messed up, and runs terribly slow (and it even has 512mb of ram). i got an os 9.2.2 disk i burned from a dmg file. it passed verification, and burned okay (just took really long). when i try to boot off of the disk to install os 9.2.2, it comes up with this floppy disk and a question mark thing. what can i do? i want os 9 on there (i like it better than os x.) it's not gonna be online, just a spare computer. my friend lost all of his apple disks, so i need to use this one i burned. to make things worse, now it won't boot onto the hard drive, and i can't get the disc out!!! help:[ [/QUOTE]
