It starts up like normal up to the point where I toggle the Boot switch, usually the prompt "QUESTION?" appears on the printer terminal and the monitor screen asks for the password, but I'm not getting either of those prompts.

The DEC computer is still down and we still can't get any MKIII data until it is fixed completely. MKIII COMMENT: Fri Jun 27 20:09:23 GMT 1997 Tried using backup disk #0 to boot the computer, it was write protected. Got same results as with regular disk #0, no bootup. Took out backup disk and reinstalled regular disk.
