[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1842582, member: 204485"] In post #11 audi911 states that he can still boot from the device so assuming the CD/DVD Drive still works all that is required is a bootable installer on a disk. Alternatively if it is capable of connecting to the internet it is possible that a later OSX could be downloaded but creating a USB installer on the device is probably out of the question. I think Bob's suggestion of a friend with a Mac is probably the best option and the only free one. All that would be required would be to download a free Instal Disk Creator, download say OSX Lion or El Capitan (I'm sure one of us has a link for that) and create a USB bootable installer. Or am I missing something? [/QUOTE]
