My quadra won’t recognize the HD and I tried to install system 7.5 on it and it can’t find the HD, when I boot it up it shows ma folder with a question mark and after 5-7 minutes it turns on and off like this bong….bong….bong….bongbongbongbongdadadadada then it shuts off, any ideas? This is urgent
You’ll probably need a new hard drive for it. Especially if the install floppy cant find the HD. Your best bet would be to scour eBay for a replacement. Also, if you’ve ever done any sort of hardware repair on a computer, you shouldn’t have any problems replacing it. Those old macs were meant to be serviced.
You’ll need a 1/3 height SCSI hard drive. This is just a standard size drive.
