Rev 1: The start up IDE drive should be mounted to the back of the
machine and connected to the LB directly from there. (don't know
which P it is). There should be no other drives connected to it.
Other suggestions which you may have already tried:
Reset PRAM.
Buy a new PRAM battery.
Try booting from a CD.
Try a different video card.

I'm just now getting to trying to boot
a B&W 350 rev 1
purchased on Lem Swap List.
One of those bad deals that precipitated the list closing.
I get the Apple tone but nothing comes on the screen
and it doesn't seem like the HD is activating.
To start the HD is plugged into P5 in a chain of plugs P2, P4 & P5
Sscondly the Rage card may not be seated properly.
The back "wall" seems bent slightly so the Rage card (video care I
guess)
can be pressed in a little tighter. Though if I do this manually
when booting
it doesn't make any difference.
Just want to make sure that this is toast and that there's no
change of a simple fix to get a boot.
All advice is of course appreciated.
