And note...that all 3 Molex...on the board must be supplied with power.
Heh.  These boards don't come with manuals.  I supplied the three SATA inputs with power, but the three Molex connectors are labeled "POUT."  I thought that meant "power out."  Thanks.  I'll try that.

Yeah, I had to learn all this stuff the hard way too on account of the lack of documentation and the Aliexpress listing expressly stating not to use the onboard video when it should have said you /have to use/ the onboard video...  Roll Eyes

Oh, and these boards absolutely require 1.35V DDR3L SODIMM (laptop) memory. I had success with a 4GB stick of Crucial DDR3L-1600, but Windows 10 is quite sluggish with that little amount of memory while mining. Then again, not sure you can expect more out of a Celeron mobile CPU that draws 15W.
