So I have an iMac g3 and I got an external disc drive but every time I try to instal the disc nothing happens. The iMac I have is a 350 mgz model so I have no fire wire. And I don’t know what to do. Any answers would be great.
Is this a good question?

The maximum operating system on the two iMac G3 350 MHz are :
Apple iMac G3/350 (Slot Loading - Blueberry) Specs
Identifiers: Slot Loading No FW - M7469LL/A - PowerMac2,1 - M5521 - 1821
Pre-Installed MacOS:8.6 Maximum MacOS:X 10.3.9
Apple iMac G3/350 (Summer 2000 - Indigo) Specs
Identifiers: Summer 2000 - No FW/AP - M7667LL/A - PowerMac2,2 - M5521 - 1857
Pre-Installed MacOS:9.0.4 Maximum MacOS:X 10.3.9
So the disk you are trying to install, won’t work on your machine.
Your drive may be working fine but just need the correct system disk.

what's the matter with the internal drive? What type and brand of external drive did you get?

The internal drive would just make noise and would try to spit out the disk. The external drive I got is a starcat usb disk drive
