[Cialug] bios fubar?

Do you get a cursor on the screen at all?  If you're willing to share,
what's the make/model.  Some systems I've seen retain a basic set of
functionality for video, keyboard, and floppy so a bios can be flashed if
the current one is damaged.  Granted...that was a desktop board.
