Re:Newbie Needs Help - 2009/03/23 19:15 The Performa 200 will run on System 7.0.1-7.5.1,7.5.3-7.6.1 only.

Are you sure you copied the System 7 disk image correctly ? Did you use Apple's Disk Copy application to make the disk from an image file ? Have you tried the disk on another Mac ?

The System 4 disk will not boot the Mac, you specifically need System 7.

You can install the drive into a working Mac that will run System 7 for the install or copy it from another installed OS via an external SCSI case. (put the P200 drive in an ext. SCSI case and copy the OS from another Mac)
