Question Server doesn't boot anymore ?

[Charter2632]

Hi,

I own an ASRock ROMED8-2T Server Motherboard and since a recent reboot of the machine, it won't boot nor show any video signal on an external monitor. The IPMI ethernet port flashes but doesn't get a DHCP address. The BIOS screen shows b2 code.

Here's what I tried to troubleshoot the problem :
1. Stripped down the computer to the basic (CPU + RAM only, nothing else)
2. Alternated the position of the RAM
3. Reinstalled the CPU in case there was an alignment problem
4. Tested with only one RAM stick

Still got b2 code. Then :
1. Temporarly brought back everything together
2. Removed CMOS battery + shorted CMOS
3. Started back on the computer

Now, the BIOS screen shows a 90 sec countdown and end up with a b2 code. Here's a video of the BIOS screen in case it shows useful informations : https://we.tl/t-oQ0BDmrziS

Finally, here's the whole setup :

Motherboard Model Name :

AMD Epyc 7302P, 3.0GHz, 128 MB

With these infos and your valued knowledge, is there anything that can be done to fix this issue?

Thanks in advance and regards!

PSU: make, model, wattage, age, condition (original to server, new, refurbished, used)?

from what google is saying, error b2 is a GPU error. Try removing the GPU and see if it will boot up and then use the IPMI to see if you can log into it..

Thanks for the suggestion. I saw those results as well
In the first step I tried to troubleshoot, when I stripped down the computer to the simplest form, the external GPU wasn't there and I was still getting the b2 code

Could it be the internal GPU that populate this error code?
