Hello Christopher,

Could you please provide us with the Board PBA and current firmware version?

The latest bios version is https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/23921/S3420GPLX-LC-Firmware-Update-Package-for-EFI?product=46533 https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/23921/S3420GPLX-LC-Firmware-Update-Package-for-EFI?product=46533

Instructions on how to install or upgrade Bios are available at

https://downloadmirror.intel.com/23921/eng/Update_Instructions.txt https://downloadmirror.intel.com/23921/eng/Update_Instructions.txt

Note:The instructions are included in the package and the download has a video on how to run the firmware update.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Best regards,

Before proceeding with BIOS update for https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/46533/Intel-Server-Board-S3420GPLC Intel® Server Board S3420GPLCI read the important notes section I see the following.

The system BIOS revision provided in this software update package does not include processor microcode to support any production Intel(R) Xeon(R) processors.

Also when running EFI I'm advised to run BMC & FRUSDR before updating the BIOS. I didn't proceed to install update.

I'm TOTALLY confused. I have Xeon processor.

If I install the package how will this affect Xeon processor?

Thank you for your help.
