CMOS checksum errors require that you enter Setup, check your settings, save your settings, and exit Setup. Recovering the BIOS In the rare event the BIOS becomes damaged, you may need to follow a recovery process to return the system to service. To place the baseboard into recovery mode, move the BIOS Recover jumper (J1E5) located on the baseboard to the recovery position.

)
located on the baseboard to the recovery position. The BIOS can then execute the recovery instead of the
normal BIOS.

The BIOS recovery is the mode of last resort; it is used only when the main system BIOS will not
come up.
