Hello,

I have a Z87 pro I am repurposing. It worked when I had it in my old case. I used to have a dedicated graphics card but now intend to use the onboard graphics. I've unplugged everything but a USB keyboard and HDMI. I then unplugged SSD, keyboard and video all independently and same code. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Ok so I got it to boot once. I can't figure out how I did it. Seems to be hit and miss. There's a red light near where the GPU goes so I assume it still has the external GPU configured. I reset the CMOS and still no go. So confused.

Latest update. Confirmed it's intermittent. Retrying several times, it eventually goes in. I forced the iGPU and that had no impact. I also reset it to defaults. Still intermittent.
