Until we are waiting for other points of view of this issue, what are the possible scenarios of building back the RAID as it was. I have a backup of it, but just for testing purposes I want to play a little bit with it.

if you have a video card around, you could check if you get a display<br />
also check for bulging or leaking capacitors

I order another used motherboard, and will test with it.

Thanks all for the help.

Hello,<br />
<br />
This morning I found our server HP Proliant ML310 G5 dead. There was only front led number 4 with amber light - which stands for &quot;AC power in stand by mode&quot;. The server cannot start now. What I tried:<br />
<br />
1. Removing the motherboard battery<br />
2. Reseating everything<br />
3. Tried starting the server with no controllers or devices connected.<br />
<br />
After all that - the server seems to starts, all lights green - but nothing on the monitor it is just staying like that.

Hello,

This morning I found our server HP Proliant ML310 G5 dead. There was only front led number 4 with amber light - which stands for "AC power in stand by mode". The server cannot start now. What I tried:

1. Removing the motherboard battery
2. Reseating everything
3. Tried starting the server with no controllers or devices connected.

After all that - the server seems to starts, all lights green - but nothing on the monitor it is just staying like that.

Dead HP Proliant ML310 G5 - amber light number4

Servers are computing devices that are similar to desktop computers in that they have the same basic components, but are significantly different in size, configuration and purpose. Servers are usually accessed over a network, and many run unattended, without a computer monitor, input device, audio hardware or USB interfaces. Many servers do not have a graphical user interface (GUI), and are configured and managed remotely. Servers typically include hardware redundancy such as dual power supplies, RAID disk systems, and ECC memory, along with extensive pre-boot memory testing and verification. Critical components might be hot swappable, and to guard against overheating, servers might have more powerful fans or use water cooling.

Server Hardware

Components are those devices that are internal to a computer -- the PC boards, the central processor (CPU), the memory (RAM), disk and video controllers and so on.
