    Help with iMac

    Hi guys,

    I have a new 20" iMac all was working fine.

    I just trying to install bootcamp 1.1.2 when i tried to make a disc of all the apple drivers i inserted a cd but it wouldn't reognise it. So I continued without making the cd but couldn't get the cd out.

    At the end when it said to insert my copy of xp obviously I couldn't cause the other disc was in there so i selected restart and now all I get is a white screen and nothing else I have powered off and on and no luck

    So I have a white screen and a blank cd stuck in the drive, what now ???

    Cheers

    Press and hold the power button until the iMac is off (5 seconds or so)
    Then press and release the power button, and immediately start holding the mouse button down. The CD will eject in a few seconds, release the button, and let your iMac continue to boot.
    Open boot camp, and try again to create the windows drivers CD.

    Have you had any problems burning other CDs on your new iMac?
    Serendipity is a lucky guess !
