Q: Mac won't get past startup

Hi!

so a while ago my old MacBook wouldn't get past the startup screen. I would wait for it for hours and it just had a grey screen with a flashing folder with a question mark on it and wouldn't get past it. it's a pretty old compute, it's only powered on whem it's plugged into the charger. Does anyone know how I can get past this? I've tried holding down the shift key, or command c I've read would work, but I can't seem to get it back. If there isn't a way for me to fix this, is there a way I can eject a disk from the mac?

 

thanks.

MacBook Air, iOS 8.1.3
