old versions of bios for proliant

[Steve Newett]

Hello all.

I've just upgraded a DL180 G5 to the latest Bios, and it appears the latest Bios needs ILO hardware and software installed - which this server hasn't. Now fans are running at ridiculous speeds and are way too noisey.

I need to get this server back to a earlier version of BIOS and was wondering how I find these.

Thanks.

Hey,

If you find the BIOS, click on the link (not download button) , then on 'Revision History' and in there you will have links to the previous BIOS.

Thanks Johan.

link is no longer valid. older versions are now available only with valid warranty even if they screwed up the firmware and caused the problem on your server.
