Intel discovered an issue with the Intel® Server Board SE7501WV2 during the board validation process with Intel® Xeon® Processor at 3.20 GHz 1M. During Power Cycling or System Reset, the system occasionally hangs during POST.

This issue does not affect the system operation after a successful POST with an uninterrupted run time. The issue occurrence rate is not consistent, but appears to fail once out of ~100 boots.

This issue has also been seen under the same conditions with the Intel Xeon Processor at 3.06 GHz 1M.

This issue has only been seen when running in a dual processor 1M configuration on the Intel Server Board SE7501WV2.
