Did it remember ‎its bootdevice? If not then the battery is probably  gone. It may be replaced, but I've never taken the trouble.
It did boot, right?

Hi,

I fired my VAXstation 4000 Model 60 up after a while dormant and it 
keeps asking me for a language in the SRM prompt after the self-test.

I know it asked for it previously but I don't remember it needing it 
more than once, particularly between power switch cycles.

Is there an issue here, maybe a dead battery I need to look at somewhere 
or something else?
