N3700-ITX Graphics issue

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I purchased the N3700-ITX for a NAS build I'm doing and ran into a problem.  I installed some DDR3L RAM and I got it to turn on, but I couldn't see a post or anything.  So I switched the RAM out with known good RAM and I got it to post but that's it.  After posting, my machine makes noise like it's thinking but the screen is completely black.  In the BIOS, I switched the main graphics to Onboard (as opposed to PCIe) and nothing changed.  Do I need to RMA the board, or is there something I'm missing? Also, I'm using the DVI port, HDMI didn't work either and I don't have a display port monitor.
Oh, and I saw a login screen that flickered on for a second and went away.
