[QUOTE="Mac SK, post: 1012534, member: 21908"] Hold the C key down before the chime. The option key should bring up a list to boot from. If not, the machine dosn't see the CD rom. Do not try to boot from the Ten disc. The firmware has to be updated first before you install OS 10. If it was me I would open it up and test the CD rom and or take out the HD and reformat it elsewhere...put it back. [/QUOTE]
