Resist the siren call of rhinocerosness

College Slice
Problem description: My kid decided the power button on the NAS box I've built was awesomely fun and started pushing it a bunch yesterday. The box no longer POST's. I get about 30 seconds of boot, then the BMC light begins blinking at a 1 second interval. I've got a monitor plugged in to the VGA port and it simply flashes/on off with the BMC light, going from connected/disconnected.

Attempted fixes:
Swapped RAM around/tried single sticks.
Disconnected/reconnected cables.
The support manual doesn't say anything about the BMC light unfortunately. I did put in a support request with them but haven't heard back yet.
I've been googling around the BMC indicator but haven't turned up anything useful.
Pulled CMOS battery overnight.
Tried switching the ME_Recovery Jumper to on.

Recent changes: No recent hardware changes.
