HI,
Recently my Z8 started showing a note that i had issues with the clock and needed to swap the battery (for RTC). It would either give this display or try (and fail) to boot from network.
I managed to swap the battery for a new one (**bleep** its the hardest battery EVER to get out). After this, my system wont boot. Only thing it does is show me the white power on LED while I press the front power button. As soon as I depress it the light turns off. I have removed all pci cards/memory and the behavior is the same. I unplug and plug it back to power nothing blinks on the front or on the insisde of the chasis. I reseated the power supply to no avail, swapped power cords and power outlets. Any ideas???
