weeeellllllllll

I fired up today the A2000T I received, only to find out it does not boot or do anything...
I stripped it only down to the 2630 cpu card and 1 floppy.... it powers on, the monitor picks a signal from the Macrosystem De-Interlace card, but it stays black... and the a2000 does not try to read from the floppy, where a wb3.1 disk is... (the A2000 has 3.1 rom)
plus, I press several times the CAPS-Lock key, and after a while it stucks... that is not a good sign...
there was battery leakage, but it did not affect much around the area, it is cleaned now, replaced and it looks OK, there is no acid in tracks etc...
any ideas what to try next? the trip was a bumpy one, some cards inside where loose when I got it....

thanks!
