Z220 CMT
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My Z220 does not post anymore.

One of the latest thing I did was to change bios setting from ACHI-RAID to AHCI ony.

After that change, the workstation worked for a while, then suddenly it stopped.

No display and fans at max speed.

If I take out ram, I get 5 beeps, so motherboard is not totally dead.

I've tried the procedure described here:

However I didn't succed.

What I I've NOT tried so far:

Using an old PCI video card (So far I've used Intel integrated or nvidia K620)

Using a CD instead of USB KEY, since I don't have a CD/DVD player at hand.

Any suggestions?
