I have a quadra 800 I am bringing back to life. It had some battery leakage, not terrible. I have been able to get it back to the startup chime. I installed a coin battery (2032) instead of a normal holder. Will this work? everything seems good except no video coming on. Is this because of 3 v instead of 3.6v? Any other ideas on why no video? Thanks for any info!

Battery does not effect video.. do you have any nubus video card also?

I don't have any nubus cards. Will have to pick one up and try that route.
