3-3 Frequently

Asked

Questions

Question: What are the various types of memory that my motherboard can

support?

Answer:

The X7DB8-X/X7DBE-X has eight 240-pin DIMM slots that support DDR2

FBD ECC 533/667 SDRAM modules. It is strongly recommended that you do not

mix memory modules of different speeds and sizes. (See Chapter 2 for detailed

Information.)

Question: How do I update my BIOS?

Answer:

It is recommended that you do not upgrade your BIOS if you are not

experiencing any problems with your system. Updated BIOS ﬁ les are located on

our web site at http://www.supermicro.com/support/bios/. Please check our BIOS

warning message and the information on how to update your BIOS on our web

site. Select your motherboard model and download the BIOS ﬁ le to your computer.

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

BIOS before downloading. You can choose from the zip ﬁ le and the .exe ﬁ le. If

you choose the zip BIOS ﬁ le, please unzip the BIOS ﬁ le onto a bootable device or

a USB pen. Run the batch ﬁ le using the format ﬂ ash.bat ﬁ lename.rom from your

bootable device or USB pen to ﬂ ash the BIOS. Then, your system will automati-

cally reboot. If you choose the .exe ﬁ le, please run the .exe ﬁ le under Windows to

create the BIOS ﬂ ash ﬂ oppy disk. Insert the ﬂ oppy disk into the system you wish

to ﬂ ash the BIOS. Then, bootup the system to the ﬂ oppy disk. The BIOS utility will

automatically ﬂ ash the BIOS without any prompts. Please note that this process

may take a few minutes to complete. Do not be concerned if the screen is paused

for a few minutes.

(

Warning

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

prevent possible system boot failure!)

Question:

What's on the CD that came with my motherboard?

Answer:

The supplied compact disc has quite a few drivers and programs that will

greatly enhance your system. We recommend that you review the CD and install the

applications you need. Applications on the CD include chipset drivers for Windows

and security and audio drivers.
