Hi,
I am helping someone out. I am competent but little experience with Mac.
The machine is an iMac 20" A1224 EMC2133.
It does not boot and just sits at "Folder and ?".
The owner tells me it has been very slow and playing up generally for some time.
I suspect the hard drive may now be dead or just possibly it is a cable issue.
The owner says she does not have original install CDs and I do not think I can download and burn any Mac OS ISO images.
Is there a recognised procedure if a hard drive fails totally and there are no install CD's.
Any comments welcome.
