Question: How do I update my BIOS?

Answer: We do NOT recommend that you upgrade your BIOS if you are not ex-

periencing any problems with your system. Updated BIOS les are located on our

website at http://www.supermicro.com/support/bios/. Please check our BIOS warn-

ing message and the information on how to update your BIOS on our web site.

Select your motherboard model and download the BIOS ROM le to your computer.

Also, check the current BIOS revision to make sure that it is newer than your BIOS

before downloading. You may choose the zip le. If you choose the zipped BIOS

le, please unzip the BIOS le onto a bootable device or a USB pen/thumb drive.

To ash the BIOS, run the batch le named "ami.bat" with the new BIOS ROM

le from your bootable device or USB pen/thumb drive. Use the following format:

F:\> ami.bat BIOS-ROM-lename.xxx <Enter>

Note: Always use the le named “ami.bat” to update the BIOS, and insert

a space between "ami.bat" and the lename. The BIOS-ROM-lename

will bear the motherboard name (i.e., X10SRH-CF/CLN4F) and build

version as the extension. For example, "X10SRH-CF/CLN4F.115". When

completed, your system will automatically reboot.

When the BIOS ashing screen is completed, power off to reboot the

system. Power on and at this point, you will need to load the BIOS de-

faults. Press <Del> to go to the BIOS setup screen, and select "Restore

Defaults" to load the default settings. Next, press <F4> to save and exit.

Then reboot the system.

Warning: Do not shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS to prevent

possible system boot failure!

Note: The SPI BIOS chip installed on this motherboard is not removable.

To repair or replace a damaged BIOS chip, please send your motherboard

to RMA at Supermicro for service.

Question: I think my BIOS is corrupted. How can I recover my BIOS?

Answer: Please see Appendix C-BIOS Recovery for detailed instructions.

board?
