A further question: might this possibly be due to OS X having been installed on it without updating the firmware? I've heard about that causing blank screen issues, but with the HD making noises, I'm not sure.
IIRC, yes, this is a symptom of an OS X load on a non-firmware upgraded imac. You can try putting an OS 9 HDD in to see if it boots normally, I think.
