X4100 M2 - No video to VGA port.

2693768Jun 13 2014 — edited Jun 17 2014

I am relatively new to the Sun platform so forgive any ignorance.   I have several Sun X4100 M2 (x86) servers which I am unable to get any video through to a external monitor hooked up to the servers VGA port.  I am able to connect to the service processor via putty on a laptop connected to the serial management port. Am also able to set a IP and view ILOM through the NETMGT port, but am not able to get any video out via the VGA port. 

So at this point I am not able to get access to BIOS, or an OS.   Using the command start /SP/console does nothing as well.

I am inclined to thing there is an actual hardware issue on the main system board itself, but being new I am wondering if there is something else I am overlooking?

Any help would be appreciated.
