I turned to set up a new to me toy my friend gave me
yesterday, a DEC
Alphastation 300 4/266. 1 ST12400N, 1 ST31230N, floppy, CD, 1 gb ram.
Unknown video.
I've plugged in both a VGA & my DEC VRC16 monitors, PS/2 keyboard & mouse
and I get no video out on either monitor, only a "keyboard error" on the
LEDs on the back of the computer. I've also tried a USB keyboard that is
known good via a usb/ps2 adaptor with no joy as well.
Any other troubleshooting ideas?
Check if you get anything on the serial line.
If it doesn't find a keyboard, it probably switches over to serial
console. Or it is set up for serial console anyway ...
