You can use a Genesis or NES RF adaptor, although the picture will be fuzzy since Atari systems do not like Autoswitching RF boxes, Atleast you can see if they turn on. The 800xl should boot into basic with out a cart inserted. Also you can test the keyboard keys by typing the phrase THE QUICK BROWN FOX JUMPS OVER THE LAZY DOG 1234567890 ect ect. There is a Self Diagnostics on the system I think if you hold start or option down and then turn on the system it will boot into the DIAG sys check screen.

 

The 7800 any 2600 cart will show some functionality chances are if the 2600 cart boots up then the 7800 will be fine

 

As far as the 1050 floppy drive goes, hook it up to the SIO port on the back of the 800xl, make sure to plug in its own power supply, after setting this all up, turn on the floppy drive first then turn on the 800xl. IF the drive is functioning you will hear a series of beeps and a message repeating BOOT ERROR over and over, this is a way to test if the SIO port and drive function. But since you have no disks then that is as far as you can go.
