Supermicro H8DCE - Mixed Processors - System Halted -

Hello! The system I have built using a SuperMicro H8DCE motherboard was working great for about three-four weeks after I installed two AMD Opteron - Italy 275 CPUs. Yesterday, however, the system randomly rebooted and ever since then I get a message saying I have mixed processors installed in my system and that the system is halted. I have verified that both processers are exactly the same stepping and all of the memory installed in the system is recommended and identical. What else must be done to restor my system to normal operation? Thank you for your time. Regards, Christopher Koeber |

Thanks for the help... Regards, Christopher Koeber Did you really clear the CMOS or just remove the battery for a bit? Some motherboards require more than that to clear the CMOS. If you don't know, do you have a manual for the motherboard? Good luck, Jonathan |

would be to update the BIOS. If that doesn't work then you should RMA the
board.

Is your BIOS at the latest rev? If it isn't then the next thing to do would be to update the BIOS. If that doesn't work then you should RMA the board. |
