I finished my server build over the weekend, with it being a file server there's no need for a graphics card so I took it out - powered the system back on and sat with a command prompt open continuously try to ping it. "Why's it not coming online?"
Popped it back in, without a monitor attached and success.

Any ideas how to get it to power up without a card?

BIOS beeps: beeeeeeeeeeep beep beep
