BIOS looping on Video test at reboot

After several warm reboots the system loops on the Video Init step (located between "PCI Auto Config" and "Processors").
We have 4 machines and all have the same problem.
None of the BIOS settings including clearing the NVRAM solve this problem.

Re: BIOS looping on Video test at reboot

I don't know if you ever found a solution to your problem or not (I would hope after 3 months you did) I would check for the RIB to be installed in the correct slot. I have seen RIBs cause a few weird issues if installed in the wrong slot - very similiar to what you are describing. I believe it SHOULD be in slot 6 in a 8500 but I would check your documentation.
