Even with out the display, can you ping it from the network? If not I would power off the server. Unplug the power. Take the cover off the server, reseat the memory. Pullout the both power supplies and reseat them. remove any cards in the server except the disk controller. Reseat all the disk drives, make sure you put them in the same slot you pulled them from, even though it doesnt matter. Plug back in and see if you get a display. You can move the memory around also or take out some. If you are not getting an intermittent beep or a red display on the front panel, your system board may be shot.

If you mean that just shows a bue screen and no task bar or desktop ..this is probably from a virus attack that cause it ..Try to press ctrl+alt+del this should show the task manager and in the task manager run a new tas ...and lunch the windows explorer again ..
or just run from task manager the system restore..and try to restore it to an earlier date that worked..To do that pres those like I said ..and than in the task manager on screen choose file and new task (run) and type system restore..and hit enter ..ths should run it ...choose the date that you know it worked and run it ..If it do not restore you have to reinstall or ..to use it for the moment find the desktop address and add it in the start-up for that run MSconfig and press enter ..in the start menu ..choose normal ..and enter ..and choose restart ..it should get along well again..

HP Compaq ProLiant DL380 G2 Server won't boot from cdrom

Hello, I think you might find more information on starting up the DL380 G2 at the link shown below:
http://h20566.www2.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c00972124

Also, the replacement instructions, in case it needs to be replaced, (and relevant troubleshooting info) for the 5i controller are found in the link here :http://h20566.www2.hpe.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?sp4ts.oid=316587&docLocale=en_US&docId=emr_na-c00688182

Please first make sure that you are using the proper startup boot disk for the server before entering the CD ROM option from the boot menu. Also, check the front panel of the SCSI drives for any errors or blinking LEDS that correspond to an error code. You can run a diagnostics CD/DVD that arrived with the manufacturer's pack to detect any raid issues on startup.

If you are still facing difficulties with booting up the server, you can find a video for replacement of the appropriate scsi drive here if you are still facing any issues of your scsi drive. Try a different hard disk or check the relevant diagnostics to verify whether is the controller or the drive that complicates the booting of the server

For more details check the scsi manual in the link below (section "FBWC LEDs" , pages 15-17).

I have HP PROLIANT DL 380 (G4). I removed hard disk. Its start and few seconds restart again. its happening continuously. Any solution.

need to provide moreinfo.
is the server (prolaint DL380) constantly rebooting within BIOS mode or has it got to the stage of running windows.
The other item not mentioned here, is, IF the raid controller has failed, you will not see any disks initializing and would cause the system to continually reboot.
If it is an internal raid controller, it is part of the motherboard, you will need to contact HP to have it replaced.

If an pci related array controller .. i.e. separate to the motherboard, this will need to be replaced to see the HDD's.
Either way sounds like a hardware issue. Best to liaise directly with vendor to have the faulty components replaced.

Hp DL 380 G4 no display on screen, all the status lights are green

We had the same problem with a G5 version of the dl380, no video at boot or OS boot. This model fortunately had another video out on the front panel that worked. However, I believe that the G4 does not have that option coupled with using the Rage XL's from ATI for video. Have you tried installing another video card into the expansion slots for video? If you are able to, you may find that when you run your smartstart and load/reload the OS your video will work with the onboard.

HP DL380 G4 could not boot up. Nothing display as well. What's wrong with that?

make sure there is no disk in cd rom drive if there remove it and also check the amber led in front panel which is indicating the problem still if you are not able then open it and check the ram. And the power connector in motherboard and also the cmos battery or reset the bios.

No display on DL380 g4

This can be caused by a processor / VRM issue or even a system board fail. Try dropping to a single proc and VRM and swap test with the others.
