I've got my 2003 eMac sitting in my closet with what I assume is a bad Hard Drive. The computer boots but it never gets to the OS.
So, I assume it needs a new hard drive. I planned on doing this months ago but I've got little use for the thing, so it sits in the closet collecting dust. I've changed out the DVD drive on the thing before with little issue, but as I understand the HDD is a little further in and that kinda scares me, as the DVD drive was frightening enough as it is.
I actually made an attempt to get to the hard drive before but I stopped about halfway through because I was afraid I was going to take something out or remove a screw and then forget where it went, rendering the computer busted for good.
So, anyone know where I can find a good quality, detailed guide on the take apart of an eMac, or even better a video showing the steps?
