@AnxiousADHDGuy Indeed, and that's what threw me off. I thought it was a borked firmware or something, and I was this close to sending the entire thing off to the support.

@Oktokolo I don't know too well about the general set-up of learning machines (or building PC in general,) but it looks like there are two GPU-looking cards, one of which does not produce any output. So maybe that is the one where learning happens?
I've got a report that one of our machine-learning purpose computers broke down suddenly. I took a look and saw that the thing was stuck at the BIOS screen. The thing that was off was that it did not prompt for any keystrokes. Like, if there were a BIOS problem, there would usually be a prompt to press <F1> to ignore or something, right? But, nope! Even BIOS did not do jack s#!+.
I tinkered around the peripherals for an hour before finally finding something odd - why the f*<k does this computer have a screen hooked up via f*<king D-Sub????????
Yup, somebody hooked up a screen to the base motherboard via D-Sub when they rearranged other computers, even though that machine needed to have a screen hooked up to a GPU via HDMI.
🤦
