Overview

This is the BIOS for the Intel(r) SE91510J (South Lake, South Lake 2, and Luxemburg) motherboards.  All previous updates are superseded by this update.


Identification

To confirm that this is the correct BIOS update for your motherboard, perform the following steps.

If the computer is turned off:

1.  Turn on the computer.  On your keyboard, repeatedly press the F1 key to enter the BIOS Setup Utility.

2.  In the BIOS Setup Utility, on the Main tab, look for the BIOS version line.  The version needs to list SE91510J.xxx.xxxx. (where x is variable characters).  The BIOS prefix SE91510J is constant and specifically identifies the correct motherboard.

3.  If the BIOS prefix is SE91510J, this is the correct BIOS update for your motherboard.  Press the F10 key to exit the BIOS Setup Utility.

If the computer is turned on and in Windows:

1.  From the Start menu, click Shut Down.  In the Shut Down Windows dialog box, select Restart, and then click Yes.

2.  As soon as the computer restarts, on your keyboard, repeatedly press the F1 key to enter the BIOS Setup Utility. 

3.  In the BIOS Setup Utility, on the Main tab, look for the BIOS version line.  The version needs to list SE91510A.xxx.xxxx.Pxx (where x is variable characters).  The BIOS prefix SE91510J is constant and specifically identifies the correct motherboard.

4.  If the BIOS prefix is SE91510J, this is the correct BIOS update for your motherboard.  Press F10 to exit the BIOS Setup Utility.


Installation

Prepare your computer

Before updating your computer's BIOS, Enter the current BIOS Setup Utility, and then write down each of the current settings in the event that this information is needed again after the upgrade.  

Note: The following instructions may vary dependent upon the operating system loaded on the computer.  

Performing the update

1.  After you have downloaded and double-clicked the BIOS update file (SSIIL2525.exe), the needed files self-extract and  
copy into the C:\Cabs\SSIIL2525 folder on the hard drive.

2.  From the Start menu, click Run.

3.  In the Run dialog box, type: C:\Cabs\SSIIL2525\SE91510J.15A.2525.EB.exe.  Click OK.

4.  In the Intel(r) Express BIOS Update Setup Welcome dialog box, click Next.

5.  In the Software License Agreement dialog box, click Yes.

6.  In the Finish and Reboot dialog box, perform the following steps.

 a.  Read the information, and then ensure that there is a check mark for the option Yes I want to complete the BIOS update.  
 b.  Note the WARNING message:  FOR THE NEXT 3 MINUTES DO NOT POWER OFF YOUR SYSTEM.  Your system will perform an automatic shutdown and reboot process.  Powering down before completion of this reboot process may cause your system to require service by the system manufacturer.
 c.  Click Finish. 

7.  Wait for the process to complete the reboot sequence.

Note: The computer may appear to take a longer period of time to restart and it may beep 10 times during the restart process.  This is considered normal and is part of the BIOS update process.  

8.  The Intel(r) Express BIOS Update dialog box states that the Express BIOS update has completed successfully.  Click OK.

9.  On the first boot after the BIOS update has completed, it is possible to receive a Checksum error message.  This is caused by some BIOS parameters not being set at the default values.  Enter the BIOS Setup Utility, reset BIOS options to default values (press the F9 key), and then save and exit (press F10) the BIOS Setup Utility.


Removal

A motherboard must have a BIOS to operate, therefore there is no removal procedure.


Troubleshooting

If the Intel Express BIOS appears to work but does not actually change the BIOS version in the BIOS Setup Utility, perform the steps in the Installation section of this document again, but make the following change to Step 3: Type: C:\Cabs\SSIIL2525\SE91510J.15A.2525.EB.exe –a mb.  The additional command line switch loads the module defaults.  

When the computer restarts, if the CD/DVD drive is not recognized, restart the computer, enter the BIOS Setup Utility, and then reset to the BIOS defaults.  Save the changes and exit.  

Note: After resetting to the default values and restarting, you may need to enter the BIOS Setup Utility again to reset the desired parameters such as the Boot Priority.

If you have difficulties installing the BIOS update, download the file again, and then ensure that all installation steps in this document are followed.  If a Checksum error message appears, enter the BIOS Setup Utility, change to default values, and then restart the computer.
