I am watching the lights cycle, and the unit will not power up? Any idea how to trouble shoot this? I can't ping it at all. Plugged into the OAM port makes no difference. What can I do to fix this? Will my best backup boot from the USB? Should I do a system wipe? shoult i end of life the main unit and transfer keycodes?

BCM will not boot up after a restart

Remove the front bezel (plastic front of the BCM) and there is a vga and keyboard port. plug a monitor into the vga port and watch the boot sequence, most likely, you're gonna see a Windows NT BSOD (blue screen of death) with winsrv.dll as the culprit.
If this is the case, you need to replace your BCM's hard drive.

Even a brand new BCM out of the Box will give the Blue screen, this is normal. (It is NOT the BSOD)
This is not a good thing for people that don't know what there doing to be in and messing around with and it doesn't prove anything.
This is a Signature and not part of the answer, it appears on every reply.
This is an Analogy so don't take it personally as some have.
Why change the engine if all you need is to change the spark plugs.

I would remove any connections except power and OAM. Reboot. If no luck, you have nothing to lose by a full reset. For Karma, don't watch it, go have a beer. It's like watching water boil, it ain't happin', if you watch it.

Ace,
Thats correct, It would give you blue screen with the Starting Windows NT blah blah ..........................
But it will not give you the windows critical winsrv.dll error, begin physical memory dump, and reboot the system on you automatically, which unfortunately I have seen before
