PPPPPSSY.MDD = BIOS Name

*********Here is a New BIOS Naming Convention****************

BIOS name     : PPPPPSSY.MDD

PPPPP          : 5-Bytes for project name

SS                 : 2-Bytes supplement for PPPPP

Y                   : Year,  9 -> 2009, 0-> 2010, 1->2011

MDD               : Month / Date



E.g. BIOS Build Date: 2010/1/15

X8DA6 -> X8DA60.115

H8DA6 -> H8DA60.115

X8DTT-F series X8DTT0.115

X8DTT-INFF -> X8DTTN0.115 

X8DTT-HF series -> X8DTTH0.115


********BIOS Recovery procedure*******

When you performed the Flash reprogramming, make sure you do not reboot or power down until the updates is completed
( typically within 5 minutes).  If you fail to heed this procedure, 
you will be left with a system that has a corrupted BIOS.  
In the unlikely event that a Flash upgrade is interrupted catastrophically, 
the BIOS may be left in an unusable state. However, SUPERMICRO's Flash ROMs have a special BIOS Recovery procedure 
that can be performed. Recovering from this condition requires the following steps. 

1. Copy the PPPPPSSY.MDD file from BIOS package and save into a floppy disk
2. Rename the PPPPPSSY.MDD file to super.rom
3. Install the floppy disk into a legacy floppy drive and remove other bootable device
4. Power on the system and hit "ctrl + Home" keys
5. The legacy floppy drive LED is lit, but not seeing anything on the screen
6. After the BIOS recovery is completed, the onboard speaker gets 4 beeps and system will reboot.
7. You need to go in BIOS setup page (hit F1 key) and load optimal default settings or your custom BIOS setting.
8. Save setting and reboot system.
