We recently moved a 947SX to a new location and now it won't boot.  The box
is not under support; our plans were to use it for a test machine.  I would
appreciate any help/advice regarding getting this system back operational.
Symptoms:

Front Panel lights:

1 - Green - (1 dot icon)
2 - Red - (3 dot icon)
3 - Yellow - (box with arrow icon)
4 - Yellow - Battery

MFIO lights:

SCSI Self-test not lit
Term Power - yellow
Console/LAN Self-test Yellow

I hear two "chimes" when it is powered on (after the disks start to spin up)

No I/O to the console until power down and then one garbage character shows
up.

TIA for any help you can provide.
