i just bought a g3 all in one (i couldnt pass it up for $5) when it boots up there is a little disk in the middle with a flashing question mark. Does this mean it cant find the hard drive or that there is no OS installed or what. Thanks.
Got a tip for us?

It could be either. but most likely there is no valid startup folder on the disk.
If you have any old discs (os 9 perhaps) you could try starting it up from there.
I could suggest other things, but I fear they could blow the old thing up (without knowing more spec.)
