amiga 2000hd

[jseabolt]

hello,
 I am new to this site so bear with me. I have a 2000hd, that i recently powered up (it had been stored away. it was working before). the hard drive blinks and nothing comes up on the monitor. i looked inside and didn't see anything wrong, but i didn't know what to look for anyway. i can't find a kickstart disk and i tried placing the workbench disk in but get no result. any help would be welcomed. thanks jerry

thanks
 i opened it up and reseatted the harddrive and the other card but the results were the same. i can't seem to find a battery within the unit. because i am unfamiliar with the inner workings i don't even know what the battery looks like, i haven't seen anything that looks like a conventional battery. do you think it needs a new video card? could it be the cable from the cpu to the monitor. if that is the case do you know where i can buy a new one? i do appreciate any help you can give. thank you jerry

Thanks to all for your advice. I replaced the battery but still have the same problem. Does anyone have a copy of a kickstart disc? I can't seem to locate mine. Where can I purchase one? I am about ready to give up on this unit, maybe it would be cheaper to buy a used one on ebay. Anyone out there wanting to sell their 2000hd?  jerry
