I sent you an email, dita. It should give you some tips to try. If you need System 6 or 7 on floppy disks, let me know. I still think it could be the hard drive. Drive "stiction" (pronounced stick-shun) is quite common amongst hard drives that are older than 10 years. I had it happen to a 700MB Quantum SCSI once after not using it for over a year. The drive is in my SE/30 and running System 7.0.1. I ended up slapping the side of the machine in order to get the drive to spin up and work.
