Question: Why does Microsoft Windows XP (SP2) and Windows Vista show
less memory than what is physically installed?
Answer: Microsoft implemented a design change in Windows XP with Service
Pack 2 (SP2) and Windows Vista. This change is specifi c to the Physical Address
Extension (PAE) mode behavior which improves driver compatibility. For more in-
formation, please read the following article at Microsoft’s Knowledge Base website

Question: How do I update my BIOS?
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 moth-
erboard 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 automatically 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.
Note : The SPI BIOS chip used in the motherboard cannot be removed. To
repair or replace a damaged BIOS chip, please send your motherboard
back to our RMA department.
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.
Question: How do I utilize the onboard HD sound?
Answer: The onboard HD sound available on the C2SEA/C2SEE can be enabled
with the audio driver software that was included in your motherboard package. When
activated, sound will be routed through the jacks next to the LAN Port according
to the audio connection descriptions listed on Page 2-8. You must also set the HD
Audio setting to "Auto" in the Advanced Chipset section of the BIOS setup.
