SuperServer E300-8D User's Manual
This section describes the installation of drivers and management programs for the system.

4.1 Driver Installation

The Supermicro FTP site contains drivers and utilities for your system at
com. Some of these must be installed, such as the chipset driver.
After accessing the FTP site, go into the CDR_Images directory and locate the ISO file for
your motherboard. Download this file to create a DVD of the drivers and utilities it contains.
(You may also use a utility to extract the ISO file if preferred.)
After creating a DVD with the ISO files, insert the disk into the DVD drive on your system
and the display shown in Figure 5-1 should appear.
Another option is to go to the Supermicro website at http://www.supermicro.com/products/.
Find the product page for your motherboard here, where you may download individual drivers
and utilities to your hard drive or a USB flash drive and install from there.
Note: To install the Windows OS, please refer to the instructions posted on our website at
http://www.supermicro.com/support/manuals/.
