I need some help.  I turned my model 60 on last night and it 
started up normally, but when it got to 0062K it just hung.

I turned the machine off and back on with no result.  The power
light comes on, and the hard drive starts up to speed the way it always
does, but nothing comes on the screen.  It seems like it is brain dead.

The only thing different was I added an ibm mouse.  But even after removing
the mouse, nothing would work. 

I pulled the cover off, but I'm not real technically oriented.  It didn't
seem to help:-)  Any gsuggestions would be appreciated.  It would be a bit of
a struggle for me to spend big bucks to get it repaired right now.

Thanks,
Thom
