This is for a friend of mine :

Hi,

I have just bought an Epson Equity II with 640K memory, 1 1.2M floppy drive
and a 20M hard drive.

This morning when I turned on my computer. It did the usual memory check
and then it displays '1701' on the screen and just hangs there. No response.
Only with a blinking cursor.

Could anyone tell me what's wrong? Is my hard drive dead? Please help!!!
(I tried booting from A drive, and it was ok. I am using DOS 3.1)
