It's been fixed and is back up, but the CMOS is trashed. I've tried a few different setup utilities, but I can't seem to straighten it out. Are there any gotchas in the CMOS that prevent it from working? I have a utility I wrote a long time back that blast in the CMOS to start with a clean slate, but I'm hesitant to use it, as the utility I wrote is PC-AT specific, ie, it doesn't know anything about any of the enhancemenst a lot of vendors put into the CMOS. It is true-blue to the original AT, with the exception of adding extended hard disk table support, and allows up to floppy type 4. (That was so I could use 1.44 meg floppys on mine at home!)
