Someone gave me a IBM 5155 today and the good guy told me it was broken.
He thought something with the power suply (also my guess when I tried turning it on).
After some research and great help from Modem7's and hes amazing site of IBM fixing (Thanks Modem7`s ) I managed to get to the bios beeps.
Then.. after Ive put everything together I got nothing on the screen so I disasambled everything again and when no ISA cards are in the system I get a yellow screen with nothing on it (sounds like it suppose to) but when I put in the video card I get no screen at all.
Allready tried an other video card from a IBM 5160 but still nothing.
I guess its not the video card but something else which keep holding me from playing with my new system.
If someone can give me a push in the right direction it would be very appreciated ??
BTW when I turn it on with only the video card I get 1 long beep and 2 short ones.
