One issue I have run into with a 4U server is that the BIOS was configured to only output on the on-board VGA output. This despite having a PCIe graphics card. Since you are relying on the on-board graphics you may want to get a VGA monitor long enough to alter your BIOS settings. Obviously last Sunday you had a working system. What type of display device did you use to complete the build?
