I do have that manual (I think?) But there were no photographs in there. With a photo maybe someone could notice a problem with your board too (or maybe not, but it's worth a try !) And yes the update disks are interesting (actually I'm also interested by the source) Your glitch sounds like an …

Thanks very much for all the replies, I wasn't aware the dls8101.rom was interim for the P6DLS as the Supermicro download archive doesn't list the BIOS's for each respective board. However, on checking the label on my BIOS chip it states DLSC221 which incidentally is listed in that same archive. I …

Preference would be for slot 1, tho I find them harder to source at a sensible price …
