November 17, 20232 yr I am attempting to setup UnRaid on an old station I bought in 2015. Booting gets me a black screen with the white cursor flashing at the top. Setup: Board: ASRock FM2A88X-ITX+ (Running BIOS 3.40) CPU: AMD A8-6600K RAM: ADATA 8GB Storage: PNY 250GB SSD & 1 WD 4TB HDD I have the newest UnRAID setup on a SanDisk 8GB USB 2.0 using the UnRaid boot utility. I have tried UEFI with secure boot as well as it off and all I get is either a black screen completely or the one with a white flashing cursor. I have tried all USB ports on the board and the 2 secondary slots available. I have tried disabling USB 3.0 support on the board as well as attempting with all factory defaults reset. Does anyone use this configuration anymore? Maybe I am limited to an older version of UnRAID? I have found 3 other posts with this same board or same CPU and some have trouble woth newesr kernals but never had a resolution. I am not sure what to do at this point.

Have you tried to see if Unraid is visible on the network? It is possible it is loading fine but there is a video driver issue resulting in no output on a directly attached monitor.
