So I picked up a 6085-
When I try and boot it, it gets stuck on 0199, which indicates microcode is getting
loaded. It never gets to 0200 or 0201, indicating a success or failure loading microcode.
It just hangs.
If I boot diagnostics instead, it tells me (in report codes) to replace the MPB first,
followed by the IOP/io board.
Well, I can't really replace the MPB because I don't have another, and I paid
quite a bit for the machine.
Anyone seen this issue before? Where should I start on diagnosing the CPU?
Better yet, if someone has a 6085 MPB they are willing to sell, I would be eternally
grateful.
Cheers,
