Hello,

I recently bought an NEC multisync II monitor.  It came with a cable for
connecting to an IBM.  I had a local dealer wire one of the cable ends to
plug into the Amiga.  But now the hard disk (autoboot) won't boot when the
monitor is connected to the computer.  The monitor will flash a couple of
times but then stay black.  The hard disk activity light doesn't appear to
come on at all.  If either end of the cable is disconnected then it will
boot when the computer is turned on.  After the disk has started to boot I
can connect the video cable and the picture is fine and it completes the
booting process with no problem.  I don't have any other extra hardware
attached.  Has anyone else had a similar problem?  If so, what was the
problem/solution?

Thanks,
Jon
