Hello,
You can install the OS by booting into Lifecycle controller <F10> and use the OS Deploy wizard.
Your PowerEdge R520 supports these operating systems:

Hello,
To use the LifeCycle controller you need to directly connect a monitor, keyboard and mouse.
Try a different vga cable and a different monitor and see if that helps.
Has this server ever worked?
If so; what was done on the server around the time it quit working?

Hello, I would ask if you could use a monitor that is of a little lower resolution? ( with an RGB VGA port)
And can you also try to connect to the front?
This model does not have an HDMI port.
