Video Card Power Up Problems
Hi All,
I have an Intel Motherboard which I have discovered will not boot without a graphics card plugged in! Big problem!!!
Has anyone else had this problem or know of a work around? There are no BIOS or jumper settings I can find to solve this one!!

If the motherboard has an Award BIOS, then look under "Standard CMOS Setup". You will find an option to switch between "EGA/VGA", "Mono" or "None". Set it to "None". I believe that the Phoenix BIOS has something similar. Don't know about the AMI BIOS.Originally posted by nevb:
