well, i managed to find my null modem cable. but now utterly nothing works. hooked it up to HyperTerminal (which has functioned for me plenty of times in the past) and i get nothing. i power off and power back on by pulling the cord and i get nothing.

even the red LED inside the case and the blue LED at the rear don't blink anymore. they just remain on, solid, whenever there is power applied. is my empeg likely fully dead?

(strange that the lights would stay on solid now, no? they were blinking right up until moments earlier when i disconnected power and hooked up the null modem cable)
