Hi All
Wonder if anyone can assist here.
About 2 weeks ago I bought a HP Compaq Pro 6300
To use as a server its worked flawlessly since then today I bought a PCIE M2 expansion card to put a m2 in there for better performance.
Bare in mind this PC was working 100% prior to this windows 11 NO ISSUES
Anyway I removed the SATA SSD i had windows 11 on and plugged in the expansion card and booted off a USB drive to install windows,
It installed perfectly windows install detected the 240GB M2 and installed 100%
It then rebooted and gave no boot media error, I did some googling and and found that it might be a needed BIOS update.
I had planned to do that later but needed the PC back till i can get around to do that.
(I didnt do the bios update)
So I removed the Expansion card and plugged the SSD back in.
Now the PC WILL not POST, NOTHING all i get is no signal on screen
No beeps nothing
Only sound I can make it do constantly is memory Beep if I remove all the ram that's it.
It power cycles 2/3 times then stays on and over the course of 2mins the fans spin up to max speed and then just stay on
Still no post
What I've tried:

What I've tried:
- Reset BIOS (Button)
- 8 Different RAM stick combos (RAM that works in other system)
- Removed BIOS (Jumper)
- Remove battery and leave PC off for a while
- New CMOS Battery
- Added a Graphics card
- Stripped the entire PC and cleaned it
- Tried 2nd CPU that works in another system
