2821 Router, after a power failure wont boot and shows message over and over

After a series of power outages, our Cisco 2821 router wont boot.  There are no LED's lit on the front panel.  (The LEDs in the back near the Interfaces do light up.)  When I connected a console cable and power cycled the router the message "RECEIVE ERROR ON - RECEIVE ERROR ON- RECEIVE ERROR ON- RECEIVE ERROR ON- ..... and so on, about 20 times. appears.

It appears that IOS is not starting.  I have no console access at all to ROMMON or IOS.  What's going on???

ROM Boostrap Version 12.4(13r)T, Release Software (fc1)

IOS=12.4(3i) RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc2)  C2800NM-ADVSECURITYK9-M

While the router is off take out the compact flash memory card and reset it. Then restart the router. Seems the flash card is not properly set.

If that doesnt work out, could you please show some more error messages that you see?
