Q: How do you use an iMac with Mac os 9.2

We need to know what iMac model you have. Then we can provide some guidance.

For information on your Mac (model, date of production, etc) then enter your serial number at this site. Information, based on the serial number, will be shown.  http://www.chipmunk.nl/klantenservice/applemodel.html or last 3 characters of S/N at this site http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/

Post back wit the model. It's probably one of the first iMac models.

Even the first iMac from 1998 can be upgraded to Mac OS X 10.3.9. The problem is that these early OS X versions are becoming expensive to the point that they exceed the worth of the hardware. Here are a links to potential sources.
