Broken 2501

   I'm wondering if I have a broken 2501...
   
   I got this second-hand from an unreliable source, but it was cheap.
   When I console in to it, I enter the CTRL-BREAK to recover the
   password, this works fine and I get the > prompt. But then the
   keyboard locks up and I cannot type anything in. Also when I console
   into it and allow it to startup regularly, it freezes on the
   line "Serial 1 - State - Administratively Down." I can't seem to get
   to any screen where I can type something in, I was thinking about
   updating the IOS, but that won't work either.
   
   
   Anyone have any ideas of what is wrong or what I can do? Or am I just
   another sad story of "Buyer Beware"?
