In case of motherboard failure, below steps needs to be carried out in order to bring back the server to operation:

1. Replace the motherboard.

2. Complete the motherboard installation.

3. Switch on the platform.

4. Run the BIOS Update utility by referring Section 3.1.1 Installing the appropriate BIOS on R400.x platform.

3.1.1 Installing the appropriate BIOS on R400.x platform

CAUTION: Before starting the BIOS Update utility installation, save all data and close all windows. After the installation platform needs a restart.

Perform the following steps to run the BIOS Update utility on R400.x platforms.

1. Log on to the platform with administrator privileges.

2. Insert Experion PKS System Initialization R100.3 (or Later) media into DVD drive.

3. Browse to <root>\webpage\autorun.htm path.
