But before he can do that he needs a keyboard and mouse! Just a couple questions, does it sound like a hard drive spins up? Because either your hard drive doesnt have a system, the hard drive is corrupted, the hard drive is broken, or you dont have a hard drive. You can still get the Classic to boot without a hard drive, you will just need to make a boot disk. Use Google to search for Mac system 6 boot disks. It will take some effort to make Mac boot disks on the PC, however, so if you have a Mac with a built in floppy drive and earlier than system 10, this should not be too dificult.
