	I have searched and read everything I can find on this subject,
but still cannot seem to find any diagnostic documentation for an 
alpha PC164 board.  I picked it up on ebay from Sysmerica, 500Mhz.
4 32M 72pin Parity SIMMs (one 60ns, 3 70ns).  Tried about 6 different
video cards and cannot get a screen.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

I put the 50hz oscillator in (I think backwards for a moment, is that bad?)
I removed all the frequency jumpers (multiplier of 15)
128bit Memory jumper is on (4 SIMMs)
Power supply powers up, standard ATX case/ps from Global (I hope I did not
botch my solder job to fix the power switch).

Sometimes I get garble out of the serial ports like:
..xxx..x.DSD

Thanks ahead,
-Kevin
