D.3 Recovering the BIOS Block with a USB Device
This feature allows the user to recover a BIOS image using a USB-attached device without
additional utilities used. A USB ash device such as a USB Flash Drive, or a USB CD/DVD
ROM/RW device can be used for this purpose. However, a USB Hard Disk drive cannot be
used for BIOS recovery at this time.
The le system supported by UEFI is FAT (including FAT12, FAT16, and FAT32) installed on
a bootable or non-bootable USB-attached device. However, the BIOS might need several
minutes to locate the SUPER.ROM le if the media size becomes too large due to the huge
volumes of folders and les.
To perform UEFI BIOS recovery using a USB-attached device, follow the instructions below.
1. Using a different machine, copy the "Super.ROM" binary image le into the disc Root "\"
Directory of a USB device or a writeable CD/DVD.
Note: 1. If you cannot locate the "Super.ROM" le in your driver disk, visit our website
at www.supermicro.com to download the BIOS package. Extract the BIOS binary im-
age into a USB ash device and rename it "Super.ROM" for BIOS recovery use. 2.
Before recovering the main BIOS image conrm that the "Super.ROM" binary image
le you download is the same version or a close version meant for your motherboard.
