Hi, I was in the process of checking Consistency when the server froze. I waited an hour and it did not move past 6% i hit the esc key and waited another hour and nothing. I did a hard reset and now I have no video, mouse or keyboard response. When the system firsts starts the KB and Laser USB mouse flash for a second.
Steps I took so far:
Removed and re-set memory
Removed and re-set CPU's
Reset jumpers on motherboard to reset
Removed hard drives and rebooted
Pushed Software reset button
Tried rebooting to A drive "boot disk, and CD Dell Config CD
Change KB, Mouse, memory and monitor
Ran the system over night to see if it was doing anything in the background.
Replaced CD-rom
Replaced Raid key.
Reset jumpers on motherboard to reset
Pushed Software reset button
Held F2 at startup
Tried talking nice to it
The only thing i think i did not do was to drip it from a second story window
Funny thing is the blue light is. I does turn to blinking amber at boot and the to blue.
Any Ideas??
B.T.W. I have another system board on order.
