And now we know why it was on the curb. Who knows, the power supply could be failing. I wouldn’t spend $1 fixing this up. But somebody may pick it up from you for like $20.
Maybe like @MBAir2010 suggested, the original owner tossed it not just due to age, but also maybe something faulty in the internals... I pray this isn't the case but it's possible.Well i finally did the drive right, plugged it in powered it on to the boot screen. Clicked Mac OS X Installer, it spun for 10 minutes than turned off and won’t turn back on… Piece of junk…..
shame the iMac did not work, or have a port it note stating the problem.Yea well it was worth a try fixing, even though we didn’t i appreciate everyone’s help! Thanks again everyone!
