hello, i got a mac G3 today from my school teacher and he said it works and all. but when i got home and hocked it up nothing. i get a black screen every sounds like it is running. but nothing. what should i do. I'm not afraid to loose any of the data i have a 1.4.7 installation CD. so I'm good to reinstall it. but i can't seem to get the video to work.

thanks for helping me out with my troubles.
