Have you been clearing the CMOS via the CLRTC jumper ? Make
sure the jumper is in the correct position. The jumper should
be on pins 1-2, which is the left most position for the
jumper.
Also check that the reset switch for the computer is not jammed.
You do not need to have the reset switch connected, and you
could disconnect the reset switch and see if the computer starts
without that switch connected.
