    I have barebones Eurocom p775tm1-g which I have an i9-9900k installed. It has no external GPU, only the integrated one. At first I thought it was not posting, but I believe it actually is doing a POST. The keyboard's cap lock and other keys are responsive and pressing alt-ctl-delete results KB indicator lights reverting to default eg seems to be doing a soft reboot.

    Does anyone have suggestions? I'm unsure what version of bios in on the system, or if there is some sort of weird requirement for an external gpu.

    Thanks,

    What GPU you have installed? this model will not boot with the integrated Intel GPU.

    There is no external gpu. Argh, I hope is not the requirement. I bought this so I have a laptop with good cpu and ram but no external gpu. Maybe that is why I could not find a vendor offering this configuration.

    You have to buy a GPU like the MXM GTX 1080 / 1070 / 1060 or 20xx if the BIOS support.

    Right: You don't need an external GPU, but you do need a dedicated video card in the MXM slot to get the system to POST and display a picture. The Intel Graphics are disabled at the board.
