I have a Color Classic I bought back about 1991, and up to last year it had been trouble free, thought little used anymore. I kept it plugged in all the time, but my grand kids unknowingly unplugged it. I didn't go into that guest room for over a year as my wife had an extended illness. When I found out it was unplugged and reconnected it I could not get it to boot up.
I took it to the certified Apple tech (a young guy) at the local university computer store. I don't think he had ever seen one like it before and became interested in trying to find out what was wrong. I called him today and he said he had got it to start up and could hear the start up chime, but the screen would not come on. He is not getting it to boot by the keyboard, but by some other method.
Maybe some of you guys have been down this road and could give some advice.
I am attached to that little mac. It was my first computer. I ran a business with it (retired now), and my daughter used it when she was going through college.
Thanks,
