Hey all, wondering if anyone could suggest a solution to a problem i'm having:
Built something up from bits today, the condition of which is unknown for the most part. Since the box doesn't have a pc speaker, does anyone have any suggestions about how I can tell if its posting or not?
Usually, i'd just put a crt on it and listen for the static, hope that it had a pc speaker or try and boot from something, but I don't have a monitor here, it doesn't have a speaker and the boot order probably isn't correct.
Thoughts?
Cheers, BEN.
