Jeff: The Question Mark over a disk icon is the Mac's way of saying the hard disk is either not spinning, not connected properly, or is/has damage to either the System Folder or platters/controller card.
>>> I figured that. I do have a spare disk if that one is broken. The person giving me the machine told me it doesn't boot. Don't know why. The drive is connected properly and does power up. <<< Jeff: A boot disk can easily be had from any number of us list members if you want to avoid the hassle of using a PC. BUT, your floppy drive needs to work.... >>> How would I go about getting a boot disk from one of you? Can you supply me with one? I need to be able to boot the machine and figure out whether or not the hard disk is working. <<< Regards, Peet -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
