I bought a Siemens Nixdorf PCD-5ND on ebay for $15 and it has arrived. The laptop came with a charger and it was not really meant to be fully working but the pics did show it booting to bios. After charging for a but I pressed on and the on light came on but nothing came onto the screen. I tried vga output and the same thing happened. Does anyone know anything I could to do get it going?

Yeah it has a 60gb hdd that is obviously not original considering its size, it has been wiped so it has no os. I will take some pics now
