Re: No post error



UPDATE: I removed the ram stick (in the third slot from the top), and
unplugged the power on the floppy drive and turned on the computer.
Problem solved! I haven't yet put it back or swapped it with the one
is the first slot. Will try that later. But, it seems that playing
with the ram is an easy first step to solving a no post error. (Or
maybe the problem was the floppy. Will have to isolate the variables
and report back.)

Thanks for your suggestion, Tex.
