How to Start the Setup Utility

Normally, the only visible Power-On Self-Test (POST) routine is the memory test.  

As the memory is being tested, press the <Delete> key to enter the main menu of 

the AMI BIOS Setup Utility. From the main menu, you can access the other setup 

screens. An AMI BIOS identifi cation string is displayed at the left bottom corner of 

the screen, below the copyright message.

Warning!

 Do not upgrade the BIOS unless your system has a BIOS-related 

issue. Flashing the wrong BIOS can cause irreparable damage to the 

system. In no event shall Supermicro be liable for direct, indirect, special, 

incidental, or consequential damages arising from a BIOS update. If you 

have to update the BIOS, do not shut down or reset the system while the 

BIOS is updating. This is to avoid possible boot failure. 

7-2   Main Setup

When you fi rst enter the AMI BIOS Setup Utility, you will enter the Main setup screen. 

You can always return to the Main setup screen by selecting the Main
