  yes.
Check your cmos battery. I assume that the hard drive has been formatted
and has the sytem information?
Check that contacts on hard drive are clean. Check config and initialize.

I ended up with a crashed 380ED. I put a new HD in it (80GB). The bios is
the latest from the IBM site. I couldn't get it to boot from anything with
the HD installed, so I took it back out & installed Win98 on the drive with
the HD plugged into a desktop. When I turn it on, it does the mem test,
then goes to a blank screen with a cursor flashing in the upper left. The
test in the Bios config worked fine.

Has anyone dealt with this problem before?

Thanks!

Mike
