option-apple-p-r is indeed the right sequence but only on System 7 and later. Under System 6 and earlier, you zapped the PRAM by selecting Control Panel from the Apple Menu while holding down the Command (apple), Shift, and Option keys. :)

bad internal cable? bad scsi termination?
try zapping the pram and see what it does... option-apple-p-r on power
up... (i think thats the right key-sequence)

btw, left it on as in powered on? (that shouldnt have caused any
problems) or left it on as in connected?  (that shouldnt have
either... but...)

 Hi All
 I asked about networking my old LCs together a little while earlier.
 Well, now the LC III's hard drive died.  I had it in an external box
 to copy some info to a Performa, and I accidently left it on for a
 week straight.  Anyway, now the LC III won't boot.  I have put the
 drive from my LC 520 (7.5.3) in the III, and it refuses to boot -
 just the ? .  However, if I put the good drive in an external SCSI
 box, and then power on the LC with no internal drive, it will work
 just fine.

 Any ideas would be much appreciated.
