You might try a hardware broker or maybe ask JHHL as his D0x box recently died. Assuming you can find a disk, you'll need install tapes or a savsys to reload from. Old tapes can be unreliable. Since you got a screen, you've still got the boot (lic) disk. You may not need a system password to enable OS/400.
