[u3b.tech] 3B2/300 won't boot!

my 3B2/300 just doesn't boot.

I shut it down to look at the guts in preparation of
adding an XM, and I couldn't reboot it.

It comes up with SELF-TEST and just hangs there.  It
never gets to the DIAGNOSTICS message.  One time I let
it just sit there for a while, and after about a half
hour it said:

1-02 DISK SANITY FAILURE

So, I whip out my handy maintenance manual, and it said
to try to run 'fixdisk', and if that fails, replace
the system board.  Well, unlucky me, it failed!!!

Do I have to replace the whole motherboard?  Is there
anything I'm missing?  I can't see how something could
have broken.

Please get in touch with me here (gag@chinet.chi.il.us)
or at uunet!motcid!gulik, or call me at (312) 714-8562.

Thanks!!!!
