@atax1a Probably a long shot but DDR5 memory training just taking ages, and you just need to let it sit for an hour? Or is the board not even powering up?

@AGTMADCAT Not Even Powering On. we've got some leads to try out tomorrow

[agtmadcat@infosec.exchange]

@atax1a Boo, bad luck! I hope it's something silly and easy that you discover first thing tomorrow! Good luck!

we took the board out, put the two missing standoffs where they were supposed to go, didn't remove any, put the board back in, and it spun up immediately. lol, lmao.
