I'm pretty sure the rx2620 support the dual core montecito cpu. Have you checked the firmware rev of the box? If you look at the quick specs a f/w update may be required.

Hi Denvor,

thanks for your comment and I also thinking on same lines but even after changing the CPU, motherboard and power supply still display is not coming. We have upgraded the firmware also to latest one. I am attaching the console logs which HP support team asked if that mean anything to you.

Thanks a lot for your help.
