15 Crisis Management
If the board is not booting up there are two options to fix this.
15.1 Wrong BIOS Settings
Modifying parameters in the BIOS Setup implies the risk of leaving your system in a unbootable state. In
case this happens one jumper exists to reset the settings to 'Fail-Safe' values.
Take the following steps:
Power down the system.
† Put a jumper on J710.
‡ Power up the board and enter the BIOS Setup.
ˆ Remove the jumper on J710.
‰ Saving your settings with 'Save Changes and Exit'. The board should be functional now.
15.2 Repair Failed BIOS Update
Take the following steps:
Power down the system.
† Copy the BIOS named ' IPSP.ROM' to a floppy disk or to a USB key formatted as super-floppy.
‡ Connect a USB floppy drive with the disk or the USB key.
ˆ Power up the board and press the ' CTRL' + 'HOME' keys on the USB keyboard.
‰ The BIOS bootblock starts the recovery process and loads the new BIOS.
Š During the flash programming the power LED is blinking (whatever happens do not power
down the board). If you don't see the power LED wait approximately two minutes.
‹ After the programming the BIOS performs a reset.
