System will not post without monitor attached

These files are only to be ran on ExacqVision Servers with the following Motherboards.

DO NOT try to run it on your machine or it will cause issues!!!

With the rise of new HIPPA requirements regarding patient information potentially being exposed on systems, a lot of customers are choosing to run their NVR’s Headless (no monitor attached). Running a Windows or Linux based System without a monitor attached on the following motherboards will cause the system not to boot.

  • H110E
  • H410
  • 1313
  • X1313
  • C236

There is a work around for it: Download the appropriate file for their OS and install it…

YOU MUST BE THE ONE TO DOWNLOAD IT AND INSTALL IT. DO NOT GIVE THIS KB TO CUSTOMER AND BAIL!!
