Hello
Since a couple of weeks my minix z83-4 seems to be dead ( I was on hollydays and noticed could not connect to it anymore). When connecting it to power and screen the green led turns on but there is nothing on the display.
I tried a few HDMI cables - the same issue. That probably means is dead ?

Hi,

I had the same situation and the problem was the update of the Linux kernel. I was able to boot and see images on the screen using a previous kernel.

My friend accidentally attempted flashing the wrong bios in windows and it refused to boot (light stayed green).
A year later when I tried booting today it flashed green then blue yet still refused to boot.
After preparing a Z83-4-Win10_Home_1903-20190925.zip USB to my astonishment it came to life.
I restored Z83-4-Win10_Home_1903-20190925.zip then upgraded to Pro with a key.
Really cool little computers, I'll probably buy a more powerful one for myself one day.

I have had this problem! Through the driver update software, I accidentally updated the firmware and obviously now it remains with green light without video output. How did you solve yourself?
