I got a Kaypro II today that i've been trying to get working most of today. At first the psu plug had cracked solder joints, so I reflowed that and was able to power the system on. Now the problem is that I don't seem to get any image on the crt. I can hear the crt kick on and hear the typical whine that they make, and the a: floppy drive light comes on but that's about it. Pressing keys on the keyboard doesn't seem to do anything. I can see both the floppy drive motors spinning even with no disk inserted, and inserting a disk does nothing either. I reseated the IC's, and cleaned the legs of them too since there looked to be some gunk on them. I tried swapping to memory around to see if that would help but nothing changed unfortunately.
Is it possible there's a dead chip somewhere, and if so where should I start looking?
