Have you tried:Yep, the PowerEdge T110 is toast.
Not sure whether it can be fixed or not, but after trying THREE different Mellanox/HP FlexibleLOM adapters inside the PowerEdge T110, something must have happened because when I removed the last one, and powered it back on, it now just continuously reboots.
I guess the PowerEdge T110 is now headed towards E-Bay (as scrap/parts). The processor, memory, and other components are probably fine (I would think) but it does look like something definitely happened to the PowerEdge T110 mainboard, and it apparently did NOT like the Mellanox/HP FlexibleLOM [Mellanox MCX354A-FCBT (HP 649282-B21)] adapter cards.
So clearly these adapter cards are for HP Proliant Gen8 Servers ONLY. Don't EVER stick one in a Dell, or you'll definitely be SORRY.
Lots of "colorful" words were coming out of my mouth tonight...
It was definitely an "interesting" experiment...
[No happy ending here...]
1) Unplug
2) Disconnect everything except KB/Mouse/Monitor
3) Disconnect everything inside except frontpanel & PSU connectors
4) Remove all addin cards
5) Remove CMOS battery
6) Press power button a few times
7) Replace CMOS battery
8) Reseat RAM & possibly try with a single stick installed
8) Plug in power & Power it on
Also can you actually get into the bios or does it reboot? If that doesn't work looks like you can snag a replacement board for under $100 on ebay. Sorry that it was such a crappy ordeal.
