Hi FreeNAS friends. After 2 years of solid service, I think my ASRock C2750D4I has finally succumbed to the Avaton family LPC bug. I had a few unplanned restarts in one day (kernel panics) and now it won't POST. Power supply spins up, but nothing happens - no output to VGA. The only thing I...

Hi all, Hoping someone might be able to help. Like a fool, I rushed in to do an IPMI firmware upgrade on my ASRock C2750D4I and I seem to have managed to toast the BMC. I stupidly started the firmware upgrade from the IPMI GUI using the MacOS Safari browser. At the point where it should have...

I am considering migrating my motherboard from a Mini XL to a RPC-431. The latter offers 120mm fans where the Mini XL used 60mm (?) ones, two 80mm in the rear (vs. one for the mini XL), etc. Given that I'd be installing a 650W Seasonic power supply in this case, do you think can I safely...

Hi all, Somehow I managed to spend a lot of money on my C2750D4I board without doing enough research and finding out it was probably a bad idea. I am a complete novice (which might wind one or two people on here up a bit) I have built couple of PCs in my time, but some of the terms I've read...

Hello, regarding ASRock Intel Avoton C2750 2.4GHz/DDR3/SATA3/V&2GbE/Mini-ITX Motherboard and CPU Combo C2750D4I COLOR BOX I'm trying to make sure it can passthru HDs and video card into a specific VM. I'm trying to build a Home Lab solution based on ESXI 6.5 running Freenas as a VM with direct...

To my surprise this morning coming into the studio and trying to open a project - server disconnected! :( System concerned: the c2750d4i with 32gb ram + lsi card. Tried logging in the console - no luck, IPMI - no luck. Upon entering the server room - I discovered that it's off and when I press...

The motherboard in my Mini failed a little over a year ago, potentially from the watchdog issue, after working for a year straight before that. iXsystems cross-shipped a replacement for me, were very helpful, and I had the Mini working again quickly and haven't had any problems since. I saw...

Hi all, This is a fairly trivial "how to", but it might just save your board if you have an ASRock C2x50 D4i board. These boards currently have a firmware bug which causes BMC flash memory to be written every time the watchdog is patted. Given enough time, the flash memory massively exceeds its...
