I moved the server 6 inches and now it wont start. Just one long beep and nothing else. no display either.

the diagnostic leds show 0 0 0 X 0 X 0 X

the manual does not cover the led combo above. any thoughts?

Tried unplugging and re-plugging the power cord, removing all power and

connections from M/B, reseating all components, same 1 long beep and nothing else.

Please help

Hi,

Here are our recommendations:

- Clear the CMOS battery by removing it for one minute and power cycle the board.

- Take the board out of the chassis and test it over a non static surface with minimum components installed (processor, memory). You can use pins 11 and 13 to power up the board.

- Test the system without memory installed looking for beep codes. If you get 3 beep codes, test with different memory.

- If possible test the system with a regular ATX power supply.

- If the issue persists after removing memory and the power supply, we recommend contacting our support group via phone to replace the board under warranty.
