Snow Leopard would be your best bet for $20.
I agree with what Niel has said, basically. (I think my Mac may be able to support El Captain!).ĭoes anyone know of either a solution to create a boot drive, install a fresh OS X, or what version of OS X I need to buy the disk for? (The model # is: A1186 EMC: 2113).
MAC OS X INSTALL FOR MACBOOK PRO UPGRADE
Before I go and buy a disk, I want to make sure I buy a version that my Mac will boot from, and that I'll be able to upgrade from it at no additional charge. I believe that I have to purchase a install disk of OS X since Apple has made it impossible to create a USB boot disk without already owning another Mac.
I gave also tried booting up with the various key commands (cmd+r, c, etc) and they have all resulted in the same flashing folder screen. I also noticed that the same thing happens when I boot up the Mac with no hard drive at all. Through my research, little to my surprise, I found that this means the boot media could not be found. However, when I boot up the computer, I get over a minute of gray screen until it shows a blinking folder icon with a question mark. Thinking I could just put a fresh one in and load the operating system, I dug through my parts. After a little work, I have gotten the hardware fully working, but don't have the original hard drive. I recently acquired a beaten-up Mac Pro from 2008 and decided to make it my project PC.
