Hi,

Generally error 905 during POST means that the NVram is cleared by a jumper. Check the jumper status -Is the jumper back in it's original position?

Can you try booting from the ECU diskette and select option 3) View or edit details. Then press F10 to finish the setup and finally select step 5 ( save and exit) and Enter to reboot the server.

This may help you.

Much Thanks,
Once I got the case off and looked around a bit, found that BIOS is controlled by dip switches, reset the switch and the error is gone.
Now im off to install an OS on it.
Thanks again.
