Chapter 5: Advanced Motherboard Setup
5-11 Installing Software
The Supermicro ftp site contains drivers and utilities for your system at
ftp://ftp.
supermicro.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 CD/DVD of the drivers and
utilities it contains. (You may also use a utility to extract the ISO file if preferred.)
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.
After creating a CD/DVD with the ISO files, insert the disk into the CD/DVD drive
on your system and the display shown in Figure 5-4 should appear.

Note: Click the icons showing a hand writing on paper to view the readme files for
each item. Click the computer icons to the right of these items to install each item
(from top to the bottom) one at a time. After installing each item, you must reboot
the system before moving on to the next item on the list. The bottom icon with a
CD on it allows you to view the entire contents.
