R720xd stuck at Configuring Memory...Done

Hi all, my recently acquired R720xd hangs at Configuring Memory...Done, as the title says. I can't press F10 or F2 or any other key.

  • I have taken out all components except a CPU on slot 1 and one stick of memory.
  • I have varied which of my two CPUs I had in slot 1, and which stick of memory. All without any result.
  • I have also changed the NVRAM_CLR and PASSWD_EN jumpers around to no avail.
  • I have tried to set a BIOS variable through racadm to try and 'jumble' the BIOS. It now simply shows as Pending in racadm and it doesn't seem to get applied at all.
  • I have tried to flash the bios via racadm, which fails because it wants to reboot to apply, but the machine never gets to a state where a bios update is applied.

The only way I can change what the message is, is by removing all memory from the machine, or inserting in a non-supported order.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
