You could try starting up with the hard drive disconnected using your system disk. If that doesn't work try removing one ram stick at a time. Good luck. Ralph

Additional thought--if removing the hard drive doesn't work try removing the optical drive. Fortunately these things are very easy to do with a Pismo. Ralph
