Ex490 Fails To Power Up...

I bought a VGA cable to use for upgrading my ex490 to my copy of WHS2011 as the original WSHv1 was getting balky with dropping off the network. Now after installing the cable and jumper for usb boot, the server refuses to power up. Pressing the power button does nothing. I think I've been through most of the posts on site and the PSU spins up if the pins are shorted, so I don't think its the PSU.

Before I trundle it to the recycle bin and repurpose the drives into a QNAP unit does anyone have any ideas?

I've looked for replacemnt 49x's local enuf to Western Canada thru ebay and kijijji, but really nothing that would make it worthwhile once you factor in shipping...

although I've liked the medisasmart for its form factor, its not really worth spending a lot on to fix/repair as I can repurpose the drives into a spar QNAP that I have.
