D.3 Recovering the BIOS Block with a USB Device
This feature allows the user to recover the main BIOS image using a USB-attached device
without additional utilities used. A USB ash or media drive 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 the recovery block is FAT (including FAT12, FAT16, and FAT32),
which is 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 stored in the device.
To perform UEFI BIOS recovery using a USB-attached device, follow the instructions below:
1. Using a di󰀨erent machine, copy the "Super.ROM" binary image le into the disc Root "\"
directory of a USB ash or media drive.
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 the BIOS recovery use.
Note 2: Before recovering the main BIOS image, conrm that the "Super.ROM" bi-
nary image le you download is the same version or a close version meant for your
motherboard.
2. Insert the USB device that contains the new BIOS image ("Super.ROM") into your USB
port and reset the system until the following screen appears:
