When I first powered it up, it would give me a 161 error. The 3rd picture shows the monitor working at this time.  This would normally indicate the internal battery is no good.  So I ordered a replacement battery pack for it.  But now when I power back up the monitor appears to recognize the start up of the machine and the machine makes the normal “beep” sound- but I cannot see the DOS prompt anymore.
If I hit F1 on the original keyboard, I can heard another beep, meaning the processor is working.  But the original monitor won’t display the dos prompt.  You can see it change color and react when plugged/unplugged  into CPU.
The only thing I did was replace the battery and I blew out the dust from the board with compressed air (while it I was shut down).  Any suggestions on what to test/fix would be welcomed.
