Hi guys, anyone has p320 tiny around?
I bought one off local market, seller claims it to be in working condition, but it came with no ram and no CPU.
I didn't have core gen 6 or 7 so i bought i7-7700 from another seller who also claims CPU to work yet auctioned it off starting with 1 JPY, i won it for around 50 USD, and seller was selling CPUs like mine for a long time and has 100% feedback so i have no idea what to think of it now.
Symptoms TLDR: powers on, fans spin up a little bit then slow down for 3-4 seconds, then spin up again, and repeat, no video on any DP or even on analog VGA port that came with the system. I don't know if P320 is dead or CPU is dead. There are no audible alarms, i tried resetting cmos as per https://download.lenovo.com/pccbbs/thinkcentre_pdf/p320_sff_ug_en.pdf page 39, didn't change anything.
I don't know what CPU was in the system before, maybe I need to get the cheapest i3-6xxx and try powering it up with that? I don't know what to think and the guide is for SFF system not Tiny. Not sure if im resetting CMOS correctly.
Is there any other way to troubleshoot this issue other than buying yet another CPU i won't use other than for testing?
