EPIA-MII 12000 No Boot

Crazybillybob · #1 (**permalink**) 09-11-06, 05:29 PM

My EPIA-MII12000 has been running great, I shut it down for a few days and now I can't get it to boot.
The fan comes on and the PCI bus gets power but I don't even get the beep that denotes a boot start. I've pulled all the cables off (Just the HDD cable), and pulled the Wireless PCI NIC, and the memory module... Some thing no beeps no anything. Booted with just the memory module in same thing.
I tried some new memory in it same thing. Power supply checks out too.
Any Ideas or Thoughts?

Same thing here with my MII1000! It's killing me!

Why does the fan power up when the motherboard does not get power?

My PCI bus get's power so I'm guessing the Motherboard is getting power. The BIOS is just not getting the signal to run the program. So how do you start an RMA for a VIA product? I've only had my board a few months.

This is exactly the problem I am having- everthing is getting power, but when I hit the power switch, there is no response. Mine is about a year old though!

I am talking to someone at VIA for support. I will keep you posted if he has any good hints. So far he suggested clearing CMOS and he linked me to the manual, but that's about it.

I tried Clearing the Cmos this morning...No luck. Guess I need to get ahold of Support and try that too.

Returned it to Vender, it's still under warn, so should have a new one in couple of weeks!
