Hi all! I have purchased PowerMac 9500/132 a few days ago too, but without HDD. Could anyone tell how to boot it without hard drive? It seems like it boots even startup tune sounded, but there is no any response on the display. Was that bound to happen without hard drive or there is other reason?

Sounds like you need a battery also. Even with out the HD you should see a flashing question mark.
