Macpro 2009 wont boot into anything except Windows
So I have this old Macpro 4,1 that was sitting in storage for a long time, and I pulled it out to reuse and it has the weirdest issues:
- It will ONLY boot into Windows
- It sees the installers or the MAC partition but when I select any of them, even before the clicking on the arrow, it freezes up
- Even if I put in another fully installed drive, same thing. White screen and freezes then Windows or if I remove that drive and put in a blank one and chose the installer, it freezes like it is looking for windows
There were some other issues like a flashing power button and constant reboots, which have stopped with removing all the ram but the necessary ones on one bay, slot 1 and 2.
Could the boot firmware have gotten corrupted and is there a way to fix it or install the firmware again without booting into an OS?
Mac Pro, OS X 10.11
