[MinnowBoard] Defective Minnowboard?

[Rangel, Steven H]

Yes I'm using a monitor that has worked before with a minnowboard MAX. It just says 'no signal'. I believe i have the firmware bug described on the minnowboard max wiki page. Seen here:
----------
Firmware
________________________________

See the bug list, linked above.

________________________________

There are some reports of corruption of the UEFI firmware

Symptoms are no display, 2 leds on, and this serial<http://www.elinux.org/index.php?title=Serial&action=edit&redlink=1> output trace :

>>>>SecStartup
>>>>MemoryInit Done
>>>>BdsEntry

This should be resolved in firmware's after 8/13/2014

----------
I my board has all of these symptoms, but even after updating the firmware via SPI there is still no change.

The monitor worked before with the Minnowboard Max?

For example, I have here a monitor from my old Notebook using a board with HDMI. It just work if I turn the monitor ON and for a short time before it realizes that there is nothing connected, I turn the minnowboard ON.

Try on a TV after you select the HDMI port.

Atenciosamente,

Hello,

I am directly connected through HDMI, and I'm using a monitor that has worked before. Even when the HDMI cable is not connected and I try accessing it via serial connection the board still doesn't attempt to boot.

Hello,

My name is Steven and I recently purchased a MinnowBoard MAX. After receiving my minnow board MAX I discovered that it has an issue booting up. There is no video output, both LEDs are lit up, and the only serial output is:

>>>>SecStartup
>>>>MemoryInit Done

At first I thought it was a problem with the firmware so I purchased the DediProg SF100, but even after flashing it with the latest firmware there was no change. Now I am out of ideas on how to fix it. I believe that I have received a defective board. Is there any way I can send it my minnowboard MAX for a replacement? I'm also willing to try any ideas anyone may have on how to fix it. I am currently a college student and I have invested a lot of money into this so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Steven
