AlphaServer 1000

I received this machine for free because it had a faulty power supply. After disassembling the power supply, I didn't find any visible damage—just a loose screw. I reassembled it, and surprisingly, the power supply worked fine.

When I first got the system, I couldn't access the ARC firmware console. Entering "arc" at the SRM console would display "ARC firmware loaded" and then freeze. After some research, I found a post on Vogons describing a similar issue on an AlphaStation. Following the same repair method for the Dallas DS1287 TOY NVRAM resolved the problem.

I currently have OpenVMS 8.4, Tru64 5.1B, Windows NT, and Windows 2000 installed on the system.
