now this ere emac i got my hands on has a problem ( doesnt it always ?)
it works fine other for the fact that it spits out any cd i put in there orginal or cd-r dvd or audio it spins them around for a bit and then ejects them
fortunally i have an external dvd writer which reads all cd's i throw at it just fine
however the emac refuses to boot from the usb drive ( dont tel me its impossible my ibook G3 boots from the same dvd drive and same cd's ona semi regular basis so i am bit..bemused by the fact that a emac cant boot from it )
anyway i got several dvd drives lounging around i dont use so i plan to swap it out and found a take apart guide
the real question is how careful do i need to be with the crt and the fly back generator yes i know this wil spark off that age old argument again but its been a while since i have been inside a all in one crt mac and certainly not one with a crt this big
i doubt ill end up an blue and crispy critter but i'd like to be sure
