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 J2402.
Power up the board and enter the BIOS Setup.
Remove the jumper on J2402.
Saving your settings with 'Save Changes and Exit'. The board should be functional now.
15.2 Restore Failed BIOS Update
Take the following steps:
Power down the system.
Copy the BIOS named '
AMIBOOT.ROM' to a USB key formatted as super-floppy and connect
the USB device.
Put a jumper on pin 3 and 5 (pins side by side) to the Front Panel Header (J2401).
Power up the board.
The BIOS bootblock starts the recovery process and loads the new BIOS.
After the programming the BIOS performs a reset. Before the reset is executed the jumper
should be removed.
