HP Compaq Elite 8300 SFF

product number : A2K84ET#ABU

serial : CZC3304MY9

 

was updating the BIOS using the windows tool, it got to 99% then froze.

could only kill the power the reboot.

on post it just beeps 8 times and no video.

 

i've tried disconnecting all the internal devices (HDD, DVD etc) and also pressing and holding the CMOS reset button on the board, but no luck.
