How can I run a box without a video card? My video card fan fried yesterday. The card still works, but something makes bad smells when it runs (I think it's the fan). I'd buy a new card, but the stores are closed today. I might try to salvage or improvise a fan from my pile of parts, but I was hoping I could just run the box headless. I tried booting without the card, but I can't ping the box. There weren't any beep codes. The HD light flashed a number of times, but not enough to indicate a full boot. I can powerdown with a quick press of the soft power button, so I'm guessing it's either a bios prompt or something early in the boot process. The mobo is a gigabyte ds3r for core2-quad, and doesn't have onboard video. What would be stopping the box from coming up? Is it a bios prompt, or is Linux expecting something? Jeremy
