no display signal with my new Intense PC

Post by pasclavo »

Hello all,

I just recieved an Intense PC that i ordered directly in the fit-pc website. I connected the provided HDMI to DVI-D adapter in the HDMI port, then a DVI cable to my display screen (exactly as discribed in the owner manual). But there is no signal in my screen.
Do you have any idea about how to solve my problem?

Thanks in advance
Pascal

I have a couple of questions

1. What OS are you using?
2. Have you tried to use an HDMI connection?

at the moment there is no OS, i put a SSD disk and 8 GB of correct RAM, i am planning to install OpenBSD (www.openbsd.org) but i need to boot on a usb key or on a cd. Nothing is displayed on the monitor, no signal.
i don't have any monitor with direct HDMI connection but i tried to connect the adaptor in both HDMI with audio support and Display port. (with a DVI cable and a monitor that i tested with another pc)

The symptoms you describe are leading to a two possibilities:

1: There is a problem with a memory compatibility you have installed.
2: There is a problem with an HDMI-DVI adapter.

Please try to obtain a monitor or a TV with an HDMI connection to make sure the FitPC3 boots into a BIOS. What type of memory do you use?

this is the memory i use : http://www.prodimex.ch/pInfos.aspx?CODE=b20c25 I think it is ok it should display something even without memory isn't it? it is not the case

i don't think the problem is about the adaptor because i also tried with a cable hdmi-dvi (without the adaptor) and it was the same

i don't have a monitor or tv with hdmi connexion but i could try at a friend's place, i am not sure that would solve my problem

Try also to toggle NumLock or CapsLock to see if you can toggle the indicator LED

i tried to toggle CapsLock as you suggested but the led doesn't switch on. I tried on another pc, even with no disk connected (and no OS) the led works. What does that mean?
