Dylan, I tried holding down option and turning it on. The only volume that came up was my hard drive. Dies this mean that I need a new super drive? I tried it with two different install disks and neither would show up.

Try holding down Option before the "bong" and continue to hold it until you get a blue screen. It should look for any bootable volumes and allow you to choose which one to boot from. If your Tiger install DVD is in the drive (and your drive is a Combo or SuperDrive) the Tiger DVD should be listed. > > > I apologize if my macs not old enough to put in this group > > I don't know if there is an official cut off point but it seems to cover anything "old world" with an emphasis on pre-PowerPC Macs (with Motorola 68k series processors). > > Have fun with your "new" eMac! > > - Dylan > > -- > ----- > You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group. > The list FAQ is at http://lowendmac.com/lists/vintagemacs.shtml and our netiquette guide is at http://www.lowendmac.com/lists/netiquette.shtml > To post to this group, send email to [email protected] > To leave this group, send email to [email protected] > For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/vintage-macs > > Support for older Macs: http://lowendmac.com/services/ -- ----- You received this message because you are a member of the Vintage Macs group.
