Sophos XG doesn't boot on DELL T40

Hello,

I am trying since yesterday to install Sophos XG on Dell T40 PC. It has 4 core Xeon Processor and 8GB Ram, I've installed extra network card. But no result. After installation it just shows "18.5_132' on the top-left conrner of the balck screen with UEFI Boot, and for Legacy Boot it shows 'No bootable device found'.
Is there any solution?

Thanks

What type of disk are you trying to install too?

well it's kinda funny. I have just figured it out, I can connect with web gui through lan port, but the screen attached to the devcice is empty. When I have installed it to an old Fujitsu device, it was normal. But now it's weired. I'm using SSD SATA disk.

Hi,

that means there XG does not contain a driver for that inbuilt console. Thank you, because I always wondered about that feature on some of the MBs I have contemplated using in the past. Does that chip have an inbuilt display chip?

Hi,

Yes, it does. I have previously installed Windows on that PC. Now on the monitor screen that connected to the PC is showing 'Booting `18_5_1_326' on the upper-left corner, the rest screen is dark

Update! It ran smoothly for few hours then automatically disconnected. I have tried a lot to get connected by changing port's gateway IP, but nothing. Then I've reinstalled it again, same as old, screen shows only 'Booting `18_5_1_326' , and GUI works for few hours, then lost connection again. I am now returning the PC and buying a 2nd hand Fujitsu PC.
