Good luck.

But it did do anything..........I don't know how to make it boot i holded c on the startup screen and nothing happened just a window witht he cd that has the files there.What should i do.....Can you tell me when i should start holding "C"?thanks.


OK, first things first, can you verify that the CDROM drive you have is working? i.e. does it boot the original Apple CD?


Secondly, how was the bootable CD made? Hopefully it's not a CD with a single .iso file in the directory. ;-)

See if the above two steps work first.

Regards,
ws
