3-3 Frequently
Asked
Questions
Question: What type of memory does my serverboard support?
Answer:
The H8DM8-2/H8DME-2 supports up to 64 GB of registered ECC DDR2-
667/533/400 SDRAM with two CPUs installed. With only one CPU installed the
maximum memory support is halved. Memory can be installed in interleaved or
non-interleaved confi gurations. See Section 2-4 for details on installing memory.
Question: How do I update my BIOS?
Answer:
It is recommended that you
not
upgrade your BIOS if you are not experi-
encing problems with your system. Updated BIOS fi les are located on our web site.
Please check our BIOS warning message and the information on how to update
your BIOS on our web site. Also, check the current BIOS revision and make sure
it is newer than your current BIOS before downloading.
Select your mainboard model on the web page and download the corresponding
BIOS fi le to your computer. Unzip the BIOS update fi le, in which you will fi nd the
readme.txt (fl ash instructions), the afudos.exe (BIOS fl ash utility) and the BIOS
image (xxx.rom) fi les. Copy these fi les to a bootable fl oppy disk, insert the disk
into drive A and reboot the system. At the DOS prompt after rebooting, enter the
command "fl ash" (without quotation marks) then type in the BIOS fi le that you want
to update with (xxxx.rom).
Question:
What's on the CD that came with my serverboard?
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.
