Kurt,

One other option is to make use of "local" hardware. Where Are you located? Perhaps some of us are local?

It lives!  I had my IT department work with the machine and after several tries, it came up to the System Admin login screen.  A bit of fumbling to find the old password, and we were able to login.  They gave it an IP address and I'm working to connection via FTP to begin transferring files.

 

These things are tough...I believe the system was off for around 5 years.

 

Thanks...Kurt
