Got my first NUC yesterday. Installed one stick of Crucial CT4G3S160BM and a Samsung 850 Evo 240G SSD and from the very first try it has been a crap shoot whether it will boot. Sometimes if I let it sit unplugged for a little while it will power on to POST and I can completely boot to a desk top. Other times the power button would turn blue and the fan starts and that's all she wrote. Now it's pretty much the latter.
If It hadn't cost me as much as it did I would bounce it off of the floor a couple times, who knows, might be an improvement. As it is I am ready to send it back and look for a different box.
Anyone have any ideas?
