    Biostar M7VIZ is driving me nuts!

    The problems with the Biostar M7VIZ-SATA board in my file server are one reason why I'm rebuilding it with older, real server hardware.

    The CMOS is losing the settings as if the battery is dead, but it is not. It comes up and says "CMOS reset due to overclocking" or something along those lines.

    I am not overclocking it, and I've tried a few different sets of RAM to no avail.

    This was a nice board until a couple months ago when it starting going apeshit and making my whole file server crash because it corrupted so many files. Luckily I didn't lose any of the 900GB of data that is on it.

    Another thing that bugs me is the terrible support they have on this board. They don't even list this PCB version on the website as existing

    And I might add that if I pull the battery out totally, the hardware monitor still reports 3.1V on the battery... real accurate there

    You haven't reflashed the BIOS lately have you? Maybe a BIOS update might help? I am not sure though.... I've never heard or seen anything like that before.

      Troubleshooting of redundant F750E-S0 Dell PowerEdge Server
      by omega
      Hello all,
      as a beginner electronics hobbyist, after a few years I would like to place another post on this Forum section, given that I did not succeed in finding any useful advice among the other posts.

      Over the last years, I have been using a PowerEdge Dell Server with two redundant PSUs, namely the 750W F750E-S0 ones (aka 06W2PW). Unfortunately, last summer one of them failed (perhaps owing to an overheating), and the server had for working to take into account the other one only. Of course I opened and tried to troubleshoot the failed PSU, but each cap I tested seemed to...

      Power-One solar Inverter driving me NUTS!!!
      by mitsu2k
      Hello folks, this is a last ditch effort. I thought I would seek your expertise before giving up.. I have been working on this thing for over 2 months and have gotten nowhere. Here is the issue:
      Inverter powers on and immediately red GFI light comes on and inverter will not complete the initialization process.
      There is no error code on the screen. I have removed most of the Y capacitors and tested to no avail.
      All relays are good.
      I replaced the current transducer- same problem. Checked most of the transistors and diodes and all appear good. I wish I could get my hands...

      Windows 2016 server L2TP/IPsec VPN - two subnets
      by Fireballcz
      Hello, please how to properly configure VPN in this environment?
      I have two subnets in two different (geographical) workplaces, connected via IPsec (thru gateway routers)
      Main subnet: 192.168.11.0/24, gateway (router IP) 192.168.11.1, Windows 2016 server (VPN, DHCP, DC etc.) 192.168.11.3
      2nd subnet : 192.168.22.0/24, gateway (router IP) 192.168.22.1 - just client computers.

      I need to allow external (home office) users connect via VPN server (192.168.11.3) to the 2nd subnet (192.168.22.0/24) to their computers (via RDP).
      I have no problems with VPN connection...
