Macintosh Classic?

That's antique equipment!

It -might- have something to do with the optical drive (if there is one)...?
 
Might be CPU related ?

If you're going to spend any real time or money on this antique Mac, you should find a website where Macs of that age are the primary focus. That's going to be something like mac512.com, or lowendmac.com, or similar.

You'll also need to be a little familiar with electronics, both diagnostics and repair.
 
Thanks for all the suggestions! i heard washing the motherboard might help, does it? i know my way around electronics and i will inspect the motherboard for anything when i arrives in my mail. i'l tell more when i have it.

I finally got it! it was the ram card that didn't work so now it works. i hope i can get a working other one because some games crash now without the extra ram. im still gonna wash the board to fix the clock and speaker because its barely audible :D
