I'm looking for AHT 1.2.7 at least I think that's what I'm looking for. I have an iBook G4 manufactured in mid 2005. No original DVD's. I downloaded the AHT from
http://www.info.apple.com/support/aht.html but it just boots the Mac into Open Firmware mode.
Machine Info
iBook 12.1/1.33/512/40/CM/APX/BT-USA
Problem with Mac is it never boots. It just sits at the grey screen with the grey apple logo and nothing happens. I removed the hard drive and managed to make a complete image of the drive with WinHex. The fact that I could make an image with no errors tells me there is a good chance the drive is not the problem.
I'll mention that I have a set of original DVD's from another iBook G4 that I have tried on this iBook but it just hangs the iBook at a black screen with a pointer.
The DVD shows the following.
Mac OS version 10.3.3
AHT version 2.2
DVD version 1.1
691-5029-A
As I don't care about the data on the drive I overwrote the 1st million sectors as well as the last million sectors of the drive with zero's and attempted to install the OS using the above DVD but it hangs as I stated above. My reason for over writing those sectors is to eliminate file system errors from the equation.
