Here's a tricky one: I inherited a mac G5 and need to reformat it but
cannot seem to get past the codes and passwords which i of course
have no access to. :upset: I am a pc guy and have no use for this machine unfortunately. In order to sell it i need to reformat desperately.

Help!!

Stick in an OS CD, hold down the c key and boot (or reboot) the Mac. It will boot from the OS CD. From there you can wipe the drive and reformat it with Disk Utility and reinstall the OS.
