[QUOTE="craigmsheridan, post: 1277243, member: 194987"] Im new to Macs and need some info..... I got an older G5 without a hard drive so I installed a formatted drive from a Windows computer.

Then I try to to hold down the ALT key but just an arrow and refresh button show up. I zapped the PRAM a few times and nothing..... Any ideas? [/QUOTE]
