Is there a little (probably recessed) toggle switch on
the rear of the machine?  My 3000/600 has one, and you
need to switch it over in order to swap between debug
mode via the serial console, and normal mode.  If not.
 Panic.  :)  Other than that I don't know 'owt - I
don't 'do' NT and my alpha only has SRM firmware
(shame!) and can't run NT anyhow (IFAIK)
