AREA:UUCP_HRDWR
Ross, it sounds as if the 1488 and 1489 data in/output u38 and u39
respectively.  These chips are common and can be purchased at Radio
Shack.  Generally if you plug something in or out of the serial port
that is hot, these are the first to go.  They will cause the system to
act totally dead.  Check this first, before you buy a new board...also
with all of the weather we have had in the midwest, I see this problem
at least once a week...hope I was able to assist...Mike
