So I installed my D54250WYK, updated BIOS, installed Win7, updated Win7, got XBMC up and running and tuned it to fit my use.
I did all this while the NUC was connected directly to the TV's HDMI-port(with a miniDP to HDMI-cable).
This evening, my girfriends birthday and I was planning on watching a movie on the NUC with the wife to be, so I connected the NUC to the Receiver, the same port as my previous HTPC was connected to, and when I turned the system ON it was all black.. No signal the screen said..
WTF was my first thought, so I disconnected the NUC from the receiver and connected it directly to the TV again, but still nothing..
The power-button remains blue after turning it on, but the NUC never sends a tiny bit to the TV, it sais "No signal".
So this evening I've seen a movie with the lady on my old HTPC while I've had horns growing on my forehead.. WHY IS IT ALL BLACK!!!??
Could it be that the NUC just forgot how to send signals out to the miniDP-port? I dont have a miniHDMI to HDMI-cable, so I cant check that out, so I will try to get my hands on one of those on monday.. But still it is saturday night here, I WANT THE NUC TO WORK, NOW!! :/ (sorry for the capitals..)
Anyone experienced the same thing? Any ideas about what has gone wrong and how to get it right?
BTW: When I shut down the NUC before disconnecting it from the TV and connecting it to the receiver there was a windows update-shutdown, but I dont think that would have any effekt on how/where the NUC sends its signals..? And remember, it doesnt even send the BIOS-text or nothing, it sais only NO SIGNAL on the screen..
So please guys, help the norwegian dumbass out here..

I did that, everything I tried after getting the black screen from the receiver was tried while directly connected to the TV.
Update: After reinstalling the BIOS 3 times, I now got only one of the RAM installed(dont know if that got anything to do with my problems, but I decided to put in one piece at a time while trying out this), I finally got to install the Win7, and now I'm connected to the receiver and still have picture!
But now I'm running win update and got every bodyparts that can be crossed, crossed to prevent this from going back south..
Wish me luck with this, I got a bad feeling about it and is afraid that it will f**k things up again..

I have just assembled a D54250WYK with 4gb Kingston ram and a 60 gb msata hd. I decided to go for the i5 in case I later wanted to run Windows but for now just XBMCbuntu. I have installed XBMCbuntu 12.2 Intel-Nvidia. Everything seams to work OK until I try to play a movie and then the video stutters and there is no sound. The only way to get the sound back is to reboot and restart my amp. I also have an issue with the lack of remote, I have tried a Cyberlink MCE compatible remote but get no response to any button pushes.
