I'm addicted to Windows & IBM. I haven't even looked at a mac since I was about 9. Then my aunt decided to buy an old LC630. Now I have get it working for her. The problem I have is that upon turning the thing on, I am greeted by a flashing graphic of a disk. Now I'm assuming that it's asking for a boot disk, or similar, which she doesn't have. I was hoping somone here could give me the address of a suitable disk image, and tell me how to put it on floppy using windows (if its more complex than just using rawrite). I'm not exactly sure which OS version she's running, but according to a website it hase to be 7.1 or later.

Thanx in advance.
