Hi All, I recently got an Octane2, It is very clean, though that doesn't guarantee anything. As soon as I plug it in, the fan spins up, and the power button has no effect. The light bar shows nothing. I disassembled per the manual, the System and Graphics module look clean enough to eat off of. Not much dust inside, but I cleaned everything anyway with compressed air can. No signs of arcing pins on the PSU, it all looks very good, compression connectors look new. It appears to have low-end graphics, which is fine by me. Looks to be full of RAM though. Once reassembled, same result upon plugging it in, fan starts up immediately, power button has no effect. I tried without hard drive as well, no difference. The troubleshooting flowchart shows I think possible CPU or front-plane failure, but doesn't indicate power switch.

Any advice is appreciated, thank you.

PS, is RAM compatible between octane and octane2?
