I have just bought a second hand Imac 27" from 2009 (A1312) that came without a HDD.
After installing a HDD I am now trying to install OS X which is causing me quite a bit of headache.
El Capitan
Shows me the Apple logo and a loading bar. After fully loading, I simply get a grey stop sign.
Snow Leopard
Simply shows me the classic grey Apple logo on a white background. No loading bar or stop sign, just stuck forever.
I have tried booting both versions from both a USB and a SD card. Both made from TransMac on Windows.
Currently writing Mountain Lion to USB, but don't suspect it to do much of a difference.
I can't load network recovery. Any suggestions?
Thanks already!
