Thanks Dave I'll look into that as to the serial console, I'll have to
see what I can dig up.

Richard,
First question for you: is the BenQ capable of sync-on-green?
AFAIK, SOG is required by the graphics boards SGI used. (pause here,
'cuz I may be wrong).
As for the BIOS, the SGI has a PROM(basically the same thing)
which can be accessed at boot by pressing ESC. Check it out:

You might want to try hooking up a serial console to make sure
something's coming up at all. your graphics card may be
fried(considering the abuse it seems to have taken).
Good luck!!!!
