Follow-up to my researches: I took the buzzer on my former PC then cut two pieces in a paper clip that I used as an interface between buzzer plug and MB one. Result = no beep. Question: Is a buzzer so expensive that Asrock cannot afford to put one in its case ?   I have read on another forum that the HDMI was disabled by default so I realized that it was maybe a problem with the display port. Indeed it was a problem with my screen, the MB was booting perfectly and I finally been able to access the bios (CMOS). In the bios the boot beep option was disabled ... Question : Do people from Asrock support get so bored that they want customers to open useless tickets !!??  To conclude I don't think that this thread will be helpfull for anyone cause I didn't find the way to diagnose the MB in case it does not boot. Though I have opened a ticket to asrock support and if I have an answer I will post it on this thread. cheers !

Sorry to say, while the UEFI/BIOS has an option to enable the POST beep speaker, this board does not have a standard, three pin beep speaker header. So supplying a three pin beep speaker would be useless. I have passed that on to ASRock.

I have no idea if the four pin, dual speaker header also acts as a POST beep speaker.

If you had video output to the monitor, you should see POST codes shown on the screen during startup, which happens so quickly on a simple board like this, you'll only see it if POST fails.

You read HDMI was disabled by default? No offense, but that is completely false, and I would never believe someone saying that, without at least testing it myself. I cannot recall ever seeing an option in any ASRock board, or any board's UEFI/BIOS, that would enable or disable a video output.

The first video output I used on my DeskMini 110W was the HDMI output. Worked perfectly, and also worked with a 40" HDTV.
