Is it Battery or Is it Jumpers?
Dear Mr. Hicks,
Thanks again for your smart electronics probing from afar.
Yes you are right, the coin battery is most probably dead. I bought this from a government surplus liquadator from Ankara, it should have been sitting somewhere for long. Its a 2006 model, I think. Battery must also be 12 years old. Seller did promise to change any parts if necessary. That we have in pocket, but he is just 400 miles from here. The battery holder seems a little delicate, I did try to take that out when it first arrived. I will have to take that out somehow now that it is relevant.
When I first entered SC, yes there was no password. But I can set a password, after that it does allow me to use the "poweron". That command again starts the main air blower inside. But then "poweroff" does respond with a "power is already off". If changing that battery doesn't solve the issue, we can try loading an OS through the 2 USB slots hopefully.
Another idea is to check the jumpers on the motherboard, IMHO. I found the table for it in the manuals. I will photo their current setup for you to inspect, in any case.
BTW, just received the "High Noon" book about McNealy from your country, the good old UK. A University of Derby discard in perfect condition. I just love reading self-promotion volumes of silicon valley boys paid for their personal advertisements. Just gobbled up Dr. David Yen's book, named "Under the Sun: My 20 years in Sun Micro.." the previous night in one long sitting. That was heady. This old clunky machine stimulates the unsatisfied electronics engineer in me, whether works or not. My favorite classes were Digital Design and Computer Architecture, both using wonderful books of Morris Mano (photocopies of course) when I was in Istanbul Tech. Baah, the good ole days man...
