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 files 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 file 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 file or the .exe file. If you choose the
zipped BIOS file, please unzip the BIOS file onto a bootable device or a USB flash
drive. To flash the BIOS, run the batch file named "ami.bat" with the new BIOS
ROM file from your bootable device or USB flash drive. Use the following format:
F:\> ami.bat BIOS-ROM-filename.xxx <Enter>
Note:
Always use the file named “ami.bat” to update the BIOS, and insert
a space between "ami.bat" and the filename. The BIOS-ROM-filename
will bear the motherboard name (i.e., X10SLE-DF) and build version as
the extension- for example, "X10SLE-DF.115". When completed, your
system will automatically reboot. 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.
When the BIOS flashing screen is completed, the system will reboot and
will show “Press F1 or F2.” At this point, you will need to load the BIOS
defaults. Press <F1> to go to the BIOS setup screen, and press <F9> to
load the default settings. Next, press <F10> to save and exit. The system
will then reboot.
Warning
: Do not shut down or reset the system while updating the BIOS to prevent
possible system boot failure!
Important:
The SPI BIOS chip installed on this motherboard is not re-
movable. To repair or replace a damaged BIOS chip, please send your
motherboard to RMA at Supermicro for service.
