Just a wild stab in the dark - have you tried re-starting with
cmd-opt-shift-delete (to bypass the selected startup disc) rather than
`C' to boot off the CD-ROM?
It might be that you've got one of those Macs that won't run System 7.6
because it came out just before 7.6 and Apple couldn't test it properly;
I gather 7.6.1 will work okay on these machines, but you've got to get
the 7.6.1 CD, rather than install 7.6 and upgrade.
Rowland.
