We've had a T710 in stock for some time which was to be deployed as a second virtual host over the Christmas period. We've come to make a start preparing the o/s and configuring the necessary hardware and the server will not display anything.
We've tried reseating all the components and all the standard checks you would normally carry (single CPU, single memory stick etc) out but to no avail. There's no system beeping, there no flashing at all. As soon as you plug the (known to be working) monitor into the back of the server, the monitor drops into a screen save mode and nothing is displayed.
It's been sat a while but not been touched by human hands until today.
Any thoughts on what might be wrong or how I might diagnose the problem?
Thanks
Simon
