I have a 990FX motherboard Sabretooth (my luck). It was working fine. Very well done. I upgraded my system software (VMware for what it's worth) and asked to reboot the machine. I said OK and closed it.
And it has not since returned. Screen dead. I had some difficulty with the graphics card (Saphire Radeon HD6970), so I thought at first that it might be that the keyboard Num Lock etc was working. I stopped and started a couple of times; plug a different graphics card, no output, not HDMI, not DVI, not VGA through a security device. Even tried different monitors. I do not think to ping the box during this time, I just assumed it was a graphics issue. Now I do not know. Nothing I tried worked. Nothing has tainted in the hardware. The whole thing was functioning very well.
