Oh I see, yeah if it hasn't been turned on in a while it might be gone, typically it's stiction from not moving for a while that kills the drives.

Also pretty sure most VGA monitors will work, I use my 486 (also my Pentium 2) on a modern VGA monitor (actually a small LCD TV with a VGA input).

I haven't had a monitor with a vga port for a long time now (ever since I decided the old crt one I had connected to this old monster was just too bulky). I'm keeping the PC though. It's my first one (Theseus approved). Haven't looked to see if any sort of convertor to vga input is remotely viable and it's not really a priority.
