Ok guys, here I am again.
It's about my server...

http://www.carlos-arruda.com/problems
I just build as I sad in a previous post, a server machine.
It's a 2 x 2.8 GHz Intel Xeon with 512K cache running at a 533 MHz front
side buzz.
It has 2 x 256Mb of DDR266Mhz ECC 2.5V
It's a Gigabyte motherboard model GA-8IPXDR-E.
It has a Antec True550P EPS12V 550W max power supply.
Bottom line now is that I can't have signal on my keyboard connected through
PS/2 port, worse when connected to the PS/2 port the system does not passes
image to the monitor or beeps but it does powers up.
You unplug it and 5 to 9 seconds you have image in the screen.
I've tried many PS/2 keyboards and the same happens, they've all been tested
and are in good working condition.
I've just bought an USB one. Once plugged in the system does boots in a
matter of 5 to 9 seconds without any problems but it does not detects a
keyboard still.
Once it boots up after it has done the POST I get 2 + 1 beep and then the
following message:
CMOS/GPNV Checksum Bad
Press F1 to Run Setup
Press F2 to load default values and continue_
( I do understand this as is the first time that the motherboard might be
running with these specs, so it needs some things changed on its BIOS)
Well its useless to say that without a Keyboard I can't do any of these.
Anybody out there with any ideas of what the problem might be?
Any help is welcome as I'm totally desperate.
Best regards
