I have an old DEC 3000 Model 800S AXP which recently crashed. The
terminal had some output about machine check errors. I turned it off
and tried to reboot and got nothing. No >>> prompt, no output
whatsoever on the terminal display.
The LED display on th efront of the machine starts as 00, goes from
FE to F0 and then stops. Any ideas about what mightbe wrong? My guess
is that the boot disk isn't spinning up. How can I check that?
Thanks,
Peter
