Try a newer power supply, the one from the 286 could very easily be too low
of a wattage for the 486 board, though without all the drives, etc. you
would think it would work anyway.
Also try it with no simms, the 640k on the board oughtta at least get a
POST going. You are sure that the monitor works with that video card?
