I have a project for a friend that I really want to fix, and give back ,however I am stuck:
Hello all,
I have a rebuilt hp dx7300M/E6300/250hnqm/1.0R/j s/n:HUB7251CNB that refuses to post.
I checked psu interior, it seems fine, I recapped MB board , most of 6.3v470uf were blown/bulged, however after pressing pwr buton, ( May I have broken a trace at one of the caps? It had same orange led and post code before the recap).
The fan stops and 10 beeps appear+ orange led , manual says it's "Bad option card" - whatever that means,(no source to find exactly what the 10 beep code means).
I don't have any cards inside, during the p.o.s.t. procedure.
I Tested the dx7300 with a stock atx psu, or a pcie gpu... & made no difference.
- changed 10 ram modules different configuration, different cpu.no differences (0 result , same beeps).
Problem persists. I need some assistance, don't want to throw in the towel and throw away the pc hp.
As it's a project any suggestions welcomed, I have hot air machine also , however I don't know what parts on MB to check for if it's in order or to change if needed.
