Question : Cisco 2600 series router - hangs on load

I have a Cisco 2620 router, when powered up it displays losts of 'c' symbols to the screen, with a little tail under the C, (using teraterm), and stops after filling half the page.  When hitting enter it doesn't do anything, tried ctrl-break but it only displays extra lines of 'c' characters and won't display the > symbol.

Any ideas?  I've tried replacing the Flash and RAM from a working router and this hasn't solved the problem.  This was a working router, and don't know why it decided to not boot properly!

Regards

hi there

It sounds like you might be using the wrong baud rate on viewing the console output.  The default is 9600, 8, 1, none
But you can set the router up to 115200 - have you tried different baud rates?
