I believe one of the memory sticks is bad. If you have more then one memory stick, take them out only leaving one in, if it boots OK, then replace it with the one you took out ect this will identify a bad memory stick, unless you only have one stick.

Since you have access to another computer go HERE download and follow instructions on extracting the files to a clean FLOPPY. Then fool around with the sick computer to get it to boot so you can get into BIOS and set it to boot from a floppy as the first device, then boot with the floppy you just made.

If the memory or one of the memory sticks is BAD this program should identify it.

It's a straight from the shelf computer. I'll try what you have told me and report back when I have done so

Thank You
