My 770z boots to display memory and IBM logo, but will not continue. I have tried booting to EzSetup, F8, from floppy and with three different hard drives. However, it will not continue past memory post. I worked fine yesterday... any suggestions?

If you are working with a battery, remove it and try AC power only.

How long did you work with it yesterday? Overheating of memory, maybe?

Is everything sitting properly in its place? Check memory modules.

Check the keyboard, maybe there is a key being held down accidentally.
