[QUOTE="Shidesha, post: 361395, member: 29336"] Hiya, Sorry for being an absolute Mac n00b here... I got my very first mac off ebay about a week ago and I used it for like 3 days then the OS on it (10.3.9) just stopped loading after I updated a firmware update for the SuperDrive (cause it seemed like it was stuffing up) Now the Mac won't even start up the OS... it's just stuck on the apple and the loading sign... but doesn't even get to the progress bar... The main problem is the OS Repair and Install disc the guy from ebay gave me is a version 10.2.3 Tiger OS X... When I put that CD into the iMac, the computer starts to load it then freezes up with the text forcing me to restart the computer (***?) So I can't even boot the CD And now the "new" Mac is just sitting collecting dust.... Can anyone please help me?! [/QUOTE]
