-- ok.. here's what happens when I hit the startup key: I get a single chime, The power light has gone on, there is some whirring & clicking of the hd trying to start. That stops after about 12 seconds. Then all you can hear is the fan. Also at the hitting of the startup key the monitor when connected to the built-in video card flashes for a fracton of a second then returns to black screen. When it's plugged into the Supermac card, it stays black. dan_A -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
