Unplugged monitor,kb & mouse issue

[xy1971]

Hi all,
I've got everything up & running the way I want, but my problem is after I unplug the monitor, keyboard & mouse I can't access it from my pc's.
I had a look in the bios but couldn't see anything obvious.
I really need this fixed as I have it all on the kitchen bench where my modem/router is, so space is limited.
Cheers.

Hi xy1971,

What happens when you boot it with just the monitor connected?

My first guess would be that you have the "halt on ***X errors" set in the bios set to "all" or "keyboard"....you would want something like "all BUT keyboard".

Hi Will, I haven't tried that. I'll try right now & let you know.

Hi again Will, It was that. I set it at "all but keyboard", problem solved.
Thanks heaps.

For serious use, servers are typically set to "halt on NO error". You really don't want or need a server not booting for some trite reason that doesn't actually render it unable to boot.
