Thanks for the reply Chris. I will do as you suggest on Tuesday 02/12/2013 as far as the Minimum to Post for this system and also check the Delta power supply voltages to be sure they are firm. I found one thing interesting in the owner's manual on page 110 of the .pdf. Here is quote from Troubleshooting Changes in the BIOS Settings line 3..."3 Move jumper (J15) from the default operation position, covering pins 1and 2, to the reset / clear position, remove the cover from pins 1 and 2." I have inspected the system board very closely and I have yet to find a J15. Does anyone know where that is on the C1100 system board? There is not reference image for that in the manual. I found the other jumpers mentioned in the manual J24, J21 and JP2.
I should also mention that I made one pass at updating the system BIOS and two passes at updating the BMC firmware. The one BIOS update pass was rejected by the system. This B23 was the version used. Both of the BMC firmware update passes were rejected by the system at the 99% mark. This 1.82, A01 was the version used. Possibly the server certificate was an issue for these operations. It was completed by Dell, Inc. in Taiwan in 02/2010 but was rejected by IE10 as invalid and needing updating when I browsed the BMC GUI for inspection. The BMC firmware was fully functional when I browsed it before the BIOS update pass or BMC firmware update passes.???
