The computer was boxed with packing material, but that box was placed in a larger box with no packing. The inside box rattled around in the bigger box. The result was a computer with the case fan, two PCI card slot covers, and some rubber parts rattling around inside the case. I attached the fan with real hardare (not the rubber stuff that broke in shipping) and removed the metal slot covers. The computer won't boot. The cables are connected, but it doesn't recognize a boot drive. I went through the BIOS settings, swapped data cables, and swapped SATA ports, all to no avail. I connected the boot drive to another PC and the boot files are there. Diagnostics pass on the entire system. No idea yet what the problem is. It was listed as a "gaming PC", but it's got a lightweight power supply that doesn't have a power connection for a real gaming video card. So far, not a happy camper.EDIT: After digging around in the BIOS settings, I changed the boot from Legacy to UEFI and it boots properly. Since it's no longer a brick, I upgraded it from one start to three.
