You might try plugging into the console, rebooting and trying to break into rommon as it boots up.
If you can break into rommon and access flash, etc. then I would guess it's a code bug, not hardware. If you can't even break into rommon it may be hardware related. If you DO break into rommon and you can access flash you can upgrade the code from there. Take a look at this URL for directions... http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/130/sw_upgrade_highendrouters_23233.htm l My best guess without doing some research would be that your flash is corrupted. As far as the IOS goes, you can find the latest version by going to http://www.cisco.com/software/ but you need a CCO ID to login and legally you need to either purchase the IOS or have a SmartNet contract.
