Howdy. Got a X7SBL-ln2 (old girl) with a q6600 that is meant to go on server duty for a few more years. Got 4 udimms that are on the supported memory list and somehow ECC shows disabled in memtest and a linux livecd (checked with dmesg | grep EDAC and dmidecode --type memory).

From my understanding you used to enable ECC in the bios but there are no options for this whatsoever. The older conroe and penryn generations have nothing to do with the memory controller so shouldnt block ECC or anything like that.

Anyone around that has some input on this one? Been trying for a few days now without succes. Swapping modules and it won't budge whatsoever.
 
Thought i would post my findings on this matter.

Contacted Supermicro, who were very fast to help me out with this one. They've sent me a different bios that was not available for download publicly and that fixed the ECC reporting. 2.0a.
