Hello,

I switched my monitor from GT 520 graphics card to integrated graphics
RADEON 3300 chip/monitor connector.

So there are two hdmi connectors.

I noticed how the computer appeared to refuse to boot when there was no
monitor connected ?!?

Is that normal ? Is this a new kind of motherboard feature ?

(Perhaps it's a conspiracy People trying to boot "planks" with
"beeps" will think it's dead and buy a new one ! =))

Another setting you would have been able to try, would be

"Halt On" [No Errors]

but your Asrock BIOS doesn't have that option. Perhaps
you could bypass a video problem, with a setting like that,
but it isn't available according to the manual. Take a
look through your BIOS screens, to see if it actually exists.

Good idea, I booted the pc into the bios, and there is an option called:

Boot Failure Guard [enabled]
Boot Failure Guard Count [3]

So this looks suspicious and might be the reason why it didn’t boot without
a monitor attached.
