A2000T non-booting prob...
« on: May 10, 2007, 08:23:34 AM »
I fired up today the A2000T I received, only to find out it does not boot or do anything...  :cry:
I stripped it only down to the 2630 cpu card and 1 floppy.... it powers on, the monitor picks a signal from the Macrosystem De-Interlace card, but it stays black... and the a2000 does not try to read from the floppy, where a wb3.1 disk is... (the A2000 has 3.1 rom)
plus, I press several times the CAPS-Lock key, and after a while it stucks... that is not a good sign...
there was battery leakage, but it did not affect much around the area, it is cleaned now, replaced and it looks OK, there is no acid in tracks etc...
any ideas what to try next? the trip was a bumpy one, some cards inside where loose when I got it....  
thanks!  :-D  :-D

Maybe you should try it without the 2630 board and see if the stock motherboard will boot. Also after shipping it is a good idea to press down on all the socketed chips to make sure they are seated properly.  :idea:

Hi

Did you check the powersupply for any lost voltage ?
mayebee one of the cables to the motherboard have no voltage.

The powerleds , do they blink ?
So there is no activity at all ?

Just get all cards out and start it with minimum hardware as possible.
