NeXTstation in the museum wouldn't turn on today. No idea why! This needs some TLC at the next workshop. ________________________________ Evan Koblentz, director Vintage Computer Federation a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit evan@vcfed.org (646) 546-9999 www.vcfed.org facebook.com/vcfederation twitter.com/vcfederation instagram.com/vcfederation
Power supply? I can check this briefly at Festivus to get a feel for the required repairs in January. Assuming normally you turn on from the keyboard and it's doing "nothing" and the keyboard is plugged in correctly.

Correct. I believe our other one is also fully working if we need to swap things for testing.
Check the large Panasonic lithium battery on the motherboard, like a Mac II, it will not boot with a dead battery. They are still produced and available from Mouser, the cubes and the slabs use the same type of battery. Sent from my iPhone
