Hello guys,

I'm new on this forum.

My first Macintosh I haved used was my dads one. A Macintosh IIcx in 1991, IIRC.

It was a pleasure to use this easy to handle computer.

For a couple of weeks I bought a Quadra 840AV on ebay. It was sold as damaged.

Without a HD, it only appears the disc with "?" on the screen.

That's because I bought the AztecMonster, additionally.

The CF card isn't formatted, yet.

At first time, the startup sound chimed.

Now it doesn't. Don't know why ...

I have a Mac OS 8 68k CD. But on startup the CD-ROM doesn't scan/ rotate.

Dito. the floppy drive. It just throw out the disc without scanning, IMO.

The question is now:

1. Why there is no startup sound?

2. Have I to set jumper on the AztecMonster?

3. Why doesn't the Mac scan the CD/ disks?

Has someone experience with this kind of failure?

Thanks for your help
