     Hello all!
     
     We just got a DEC Alpha 4100 running Open VMS. I was trying to boot up
     the server for the first time. The system goes through the routine
     memory checks on LED display, but, doesn't show any processes on the
     monitor while booting up. Finally, we get a blue screen on the monitor
     with only one line:
     
     ALPHASERVER 4100 V1.2-4 DATE
     
     It doesn't give any prompt. I have the halt buton in, so, it ahould
     atleast come to the >>>prompt. I have tried resetting it, but, no
     luck. Am i suposse to setup some thing before booting it up for the
     first time? It didn't say anything in the installation instructions
     though? ANY HELP WILL BE APPRECIATED!!!
     
     THANKS IN ADVANCE
     
     Harry
