Bill, you can try to remove all cards (memory and other) from the
Newton, then reset it. I had this a while ago, and it turned out that
something on the flash card got corrupted and stopped the Newton from
starting up.
I eventually did a cold reset with all cards removed and restored
everything from backup - which was 2 weeks old, but better than
nothing.
Ever since - Backups are done regularly :)
To avoid the -10601 error, install one of the patches (syspatch,
Avi's patch etc.)
Best regards,
Chris
