Diagnosed a motherboard failure. Rationale: | ||

second delay, indefinitely. | ||
* No display | ||
* No beep from built-in speaker | ||
* No POST | ||
* Power cycling stops after holding powr button for 5 seconds. | ||
* Symptoms unchanged when removing all components (one by one): disks, RAM sticks, | ||
CPU. | ||
* Symptoms unchanged with multiple PSUs, PSU cables, and wall outlets. | ||
