Intel Ambient Temperature -128 °C???

[GrandSlam]

My colleague have replaced mainboard for HP Proliant DL320G6 twice, but for each time the error occurs : Intel Ambient Temperature -128 °C.

Any idea?

Hi Grand,

This error is due to the BIOS firmware, seems to be that the firmware on new system board is too low, update the firmware to resolve this issue:

Online ROM Flash Component for Windows x64 - HP ProLiant DL320 G6/ML330 G6 (W07) Servers:

you can also see the Fix available at 30 Oct 2009 version--- "Resolved an issue where the ambient temperature is not displayed properly during system boot if the ambient temperature is below 0 Degrees Celsius. This issue only affects the display of the temperature on the screen during boot and does not affect operation of the system."
