Hi! I recently got an IBM PC Server 330. However, I can’t get it to boot and I don’t even know where to start. Here’s what I know.
  • The hard drive bays (has four drives) have a green light on for each but none of the drives spin up
  • I set the system jumpers from tamper protection to CMOS clear to see if that changed anything
  • I replaced the CMOS battery to see if that changed anything
  • The keyboard blinks the num/scroll/caps lock lights on power up
  • The fans all run
  • No beeps from the system speaker
  • Processor gets warm
  • Reseated the RAM and voltage regular module
  • Don’t see any internal damage or leaking
  • Ethernet Enable LED on the system board is on - the three RAID lights are off
  • No video is outputted
  • Other drives like the CD drive and Zip drive power on
  • Below are the system indicators and the descriptions from the manual
