so we put it together and then
nothing would lit. the fans would spin for half a second and then nothing.
so we twitched the molex cable and then everyting lit up
only the screen didn't, but i read in a post that the supermicro boards could take a minute to post so i waited A WHOLE NIGHT. in the mourning stil no signal. so the screen was still out.
no beeps, only lights (video card, led, mobo)
so i removed the memory to see if i would get a beep but still nothing. i then left it on, thinking of the slow startup and went away for 5 minutes, and when i returned ONLY the mobo ligt (green light was lit). and sinds then thats it.
i was thinking it could be the power supply and bought another one which doesn't need the molex for powering 2 cpu's
