Purpose
The Intel Board ID Tool reports if you have a branded retail Intel Desktop Board installed in your system.
Instructions for use:1. Save this download to a folder on your system.
2. Double-click the file name to run the tool.
If the ID Tool detects a branded retail Intel Desktop Board, the resulting status window will display the board model, board version (AA#), BIOS version and operating system version.
If the ID Tool does not detect a branded retail Intel Desktop Board, the following message will display: 'No Intel Desktop Board was detected in this system'. If you get the message that an Intel desktop board was not detected, you likely have an OEM desktop board.
Intel markets desktop boards into the retail channel and to various computer manufacturers known as OEMs (original equipment manufacturers). These OEM's may further customize the desktop boards to their own specifications. OEMs may also integrate the desktop boards with other system components such as a power supply, disk drive, software, and chassis. For this reason, Intel cannot support a desktop board distributed by an OEM. You should contact the OEM directly or the place where you purchased your system for support. The OEM or the place of purchase will be most familiar with your configuration and its integration of both hardware and software.
