I get absolulty nothing but a black screen, the only way i know the machine is running is the fans, and the self test leds, according to its status led it passes all self tests
 
normal rs232 no nullmodem..

I've also seen where people have trouble using hyperterminal.. you need to use HT Private ed.
 
black screen?? (not white?)

Use straight through cable, try radio shack part number RS26-152.

Did you press CTRL+Y?

In hyperterminal, hit the restore default button to get correct baud, etc

peace
