Technical Support Procedures
Before contacting Technical Support, please take the following steps. Also, note that
as a motherboard manufacturer, Supermicro does not sell directly to end-users, so
it is best to fi rst check with your distributor or reseller for troubleshooting services.
They should know of any possible problem(s) with the specifi c system confi guration
that was sold to you.
