Got the controller powered up!

I got a ATX power supply and tapped in at the power board. Couple other issues now of course.

When it boots this is the screen I get. CMOS failure.

I decided to try and boot anyway, and this is what I got

I felt and the hard drive isn't spinning that I can feel. FWIW I did look and here is the LED's lit up inside the control. I measured power at the HD plug and get nothing. The power I supplied into the board was +12VDC, -12VDC, +5vdc, GND.

As you can see I have tapped directly into where power is supplied in the control.

Any ideas on how to proceed with the CMOS failure? I went into set up and got this scary little screen.

Should I do this?

Also the screen is dim, These pictures are in the dark with the brightness up all the way.

I think you can get away with the default values. The battery probably went dead from sitting for so long, and the setup was lost.
 
Did that and that seemed to fix the CMOS issue. I still get the diskette A error, and fail to boot.

I did change the boot option from {A: then C:} to {C: then A:} with no luck. I took an extra plug off the PSU and hooked directly to the HD and it powered up. But still no operating system found, and I noticed its not recognizing the HD now, which is was before the CMOS reset. Any idea?

Depending on how old the BIOS is, it might auto setup the HD if you navigate to that screen, and select auto. Then save and exit. If it's really old, then you may have to tell it the size, sectors, and cylinders. That data should be on the HD if needed.
 
hmm. I'm far from a computer guru. I'm not seeing anywhere to fix the HD issue. Here are the three pages of setup I am seeing.

Try setting the IDE Adapter 0 Master to AUTO

At least it sees the floppy drive now.


Man, do those screens bring back some memories. ;)

It obviously says it cant find the movement something, but that's expected as they are on the trailer, and this is on the kitchen table.

Now to learn how to drive this thing!

That is cool! :cheer:

The good news is that I think that is a VGA monitor. If you can figure out where it's plugged in at, you should be able to replace it with a flat screen.
 
I pretty sure mine has a flat screen, the camera makes it look like a crt. Looks very similar.
