So I decided to fire up my Peg2 G3 today and all I get is no video signal, monitor simply won't turn on. Also the HDD light is allways on and the DVD drive is also not working. After disconnecting everything I can I get pretty much the same. Even took off the gfx card and tried with an old Riva TNT I had lying around, same thing. The HDD and the DVD drive do work is I disconnect the IDE cables, so I suspect the motherboard is dead.
Is there any way to reset the firmware values (already tried booting the maching with the reset button pressed), maybe the battery is dead and and firmware variables are all messed up...
Can't try serial debug as my A1200 is not fully restored yet (waiting for an HDD..), but is the serial debug output even enabled by default ?
I won't be buying any new machine anytime soon so there goes the slow update I was planning to do on some coding projects I've never finished..
And there goes my plan of buying AOS4.1FE too as the price seemed good.
