Problem with Orange Pi PC

Hi,
I have trouble with my Orange Pi PC. I've tested 6 micro sd cards from different manufacturers, and many sd card images. It's doesn't work. Status led also doesn't blink. I tested these micro sd cards on Raspberry Pi and on this board it's working. In my cause Orange Pi display black screen and nothing else. I also tested android image, it's shows Allwinner logo for about 5 seconds and next black screen. In debian and ubuntu images I try use any script.bin.OPI-PC_* files named to script.bin and uImage_OPI-2 named to uImage.

Good morning,
I have the same problem, it is impossible to boot the OPiPC. Maybe it could be something related to the power plug...

My power supply is 5V 2,5A.
I tried to power Orange Pi PC via DC input and GPIO.
Red led and Ethernet led lights up.

Sytem still not working.

Sorry for my bad english.

Please bee sure you trie this on a real HDMI Monitor and not with a HDMI-DVI cable.

@fritz: Do you know why is this board is so picky about the hdmi cable while RPI/BPI/others works well with nearly everything?

Yes I tried @loboris ' images and it's still not working.

I connect Orange Pi PC via HDMI Cable to HDMI Port on my TV, I also tried with my computer monitor with HDMI.

Sorry for my bad english.

I'm having problems with the OPI PC too. Are you using an HDMI to DVI adapter/cable? I am and searching has brought up some hits that the seem to imply that HDMI to DVI won't work but not certain some configuration might work. I have the Rasbian image for OPI 2 booting (without working with the monitor) and can SCP into it and run PUTTY. Does the red led light up on the OPI? If it does then most likely the image is booted. I tried the Lubana image and it appears to boot without working with the monitor but it refuses to connect via SCP, so not anything I can do with it. Didn't try Telnet yet, it might work. Rather disappointing coming from the RPI world where it works right out of the box. I do want to get the OPI PC working properly. It's neat.

Guys,guys,guys,after burning img you must rename script.bin720opipc to script.bin ,and uimageopipc to uimage on boot fat partition .Please read all infos.

Unfortunately Orange Pi boards have that problem with HDMI-DVI cable.
JFYI: If red led is burning the card has started to boot.
My OPI PC boots normally but does not initialize monitor even though I renamed all needed files on FAT partition.
That's a shame that product with such attractive price has absolutely no software support from manufacturer. Community won't handle everything by itself.
