Thank you. I almost definite the SIMMS are ok, but I have not installed
cache yet at all yet. I was a few chip short of a full load and wanted to
wait.

you had no problems with video cards though.

Dear Roderick,

I have the same board. It takes ages before it gives off signs of life after
powerup. Make sure that you leave it on for a few _minutes_ before assuming
it's dead.

Check that you have 36-bit SIMMs and some cache. Mine didn't boot without
the cache (or I did not wait long enough, of course)
