I have one slot with a z80 cpu card, one with a disk controller and one with a 6 users multicomm card. I have 8 rs232 ports altogether and 2 1.2 meg floppies. The system boots, howvwer I can get no video out of it, nor can I get any type of indication as to what model number it is, or what I can do with it. I woudl like to run cpm and use it multiuser (mpm) for a amateur bbs system. If you could assist me in diagnosing this unit and help me in setting it up it will be worth your while. I would like serios northstar users only and I am also looking for the operting system. If you can help please call me 4pm-12pm est sun-thur 703-749-2370 all other times 703-425-3322 Dan Gidez
