Intel has discovered that system BIOS settings with some of the server boards shipped to customers may not be Default Mode. A factory test program was erroneously set to leave the boards in Manufacturing Mode rather than restoring defaults prior to shipping.

This setting issue can be resolved by resetting BIOS using the board jumper (J1D3) or F9 in BIOS Setup to reset the system to default mode.

Please see the Technical Advisory below for more details.
