[QUOTE="juan, post: 1166342, member: 185574"] Thanks for the info! I bought it brand new from CDW. I looked at my records and it was at the end of 2007, not 2008. So it's been 3 years sitting pretty on its box. (Which is all it's probably going to do anyhow). However, I have much older computers here that have been disconnected for longer and work without much, even with the CMOS batteries dead and all. :S What's a compatible monitor? I have tried so far with a Samsung T260HD and a Pioneer Kuro Elite PRO-101FD. DVI-HDMI and DVI-DVI with no success. Should the "chime" sound come out the speaker on the machine? or should it come out the line speakers? I'm still not sure if the machine is booting without video showing or if it's just staying there. [/QUOTE]
