Hit the button and nothing no response and when I put my head near the psu I can hear a what I can only describe as an electronic gargling noise coming from it when ever it has power.</P><P> So my question is what do you think is wrong is it that the psu's ether dead or just can run on Australian cable or is maybe there a fault with the cable connecting the on switch to the board (the cable hose into the allocated pin slot but it might possible be 2-4 pins short) or both?</P><P></P><P>my specs are Intel SC5600BASE Server Chassis 5U Rack, 670W with a my cores are 2x Xeon E5645 and 6x 8gb kinston ecc and a corsair neutron 256 gb ssd.r</P> Tue, 23 Apr 2013 02:30:27 GMT https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Xeon-Processor-and-Server/server-won-t-start/m-p/297238#M4561 idata 2013-04-23T02:30:27Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Xeon-Processor-and-Server/server-won-t-start/m-p/297239#M4562 <P>Which server board are you using?
