Key combo's on start up I’m trying to get a late 2009 iMac and to boot from the CD and I understand the key combinations to accomplish this, but it never says how long to hold down that key combination. Does it make a difference if I hold the key combination a short time after the bong sound or do I need to hold it down until I get a new screen?

Trying to wipe an iMac for sale. iMac doesn't respond to Cmdr-R recovery start up (needed to wipe data via Disk Utility), but goes directly to the user selection screen, with no bong at all. I recently updated the OS to 12.6.5 (Monterey), as my iMac was made in 2015. I assume that this problem is some glitch owing to not smoothly running the new OS, but I am not completely sure of the procedure to reinstall the OS.
