Hi all,
I'm new here and have just bought an Asrock E3C226D2I board to upgrade my FreeNAS environment in to the world of ECC RAM! I'm using an Intel Pentium G3420 CPU and a single stick of 16GB ECC Kingston UDIMM RAM alongside the new motherboard.
So far, I've not had much luck with motherboard, and cannot get any VGA signal or USB signal from it. I can connect to the IPMI interface no problem, and can even power on/power off the machine from there, but video signal is provided through the remote control, or through the monitor I have connected. I can't get any life out of the actual machine, only the IPMI interface.
The BMC light is blinking bright green constantly, but the IPMI interface appears to be working correctly. I have checked the logs for errors and the only thing that appeared in there was a warning about voltage being too low, which only appeared once.
I will add that this is my second board, as I had to RMA the first board for exactly the same issue, although the IPMI interface stopped working on the first board, as well as not being able to POST.
I have left the machine powered on for more than 20 minutes, and get nothing from it, just the blinking BMC light.
Does this sound like a problem with one of the other components, or have I been unlucky enough to get two broken motherboards?
