Quick boot question...

Should a 2000 NFL/NBA 2K board still boot with the HD unplugged(at least to the post test)? I know that a PC won't until it's formatted but you can still get in the cmos/bios. (BMs do at least tell you that it's bad, are there any that don't?) The cab board should be the same way right? Unless it's bad... I know it's getting power and all that. I didn't want to attach the HD until I got to check the voltages up to the board and they are OK. Curious...
TIA

Pessimist: Oh, this can't get any worse!
Optimist: Yes, it can!

If it's anything like my gauntlet board it will boot, moan there's no harddrive and then go into a watchdog loop.

That's what I figured. Thanks, I'll start checking some other things first.
Later...

Every hd using Midway game I've ever had didn't run stable using 5.1V out. Use a multimeter on the power supply 5V and try setting to slightly higher voltage readings like 5.2 and 5.25. Maybe even higher.
