OK OK.

I just need to know how to make it sound... even if it's a single sample. I can't get it play. Whenever we put a diskette in, the drive LEDs doesn't lite up and the display keeps on showing the "Boot in Propgeress" message.

No clicks are heard from the drive, we only hear the spinning sound (which is probably because the drives gets its voltage...)

What is the procedure to make it load an OS and a sample ?
How do I differentiate between a "performance" and a "sample" diskette ?
