"The BIOS can not shadow the ROM into system memory."
This is usually caused by the ROM on a card trying to use the same memory space.
Remember all of the ROMs have only the memory addresses from C800 to FFFF in the first megabyte available for shadow.

Remove the other cards, and turn off both system ROM shadow, and video ROM shadow.

How to check service tag on supermicro servers
AFAIK Supermicro is not using Service tags like Dell or Lenovo. Instead they go by serial numbers. The location of the serial number depends on the type of the server:
Blade serial number (SBI... or SBA...) is located on the side
Blade Enclosure serial number (SBE...) is located on the rear side
CMM (chassis management module) serial number (SBM...) is located next to the latch
Rack-mountable chassis serial number is located on side of chassis by the sliding rail
4U Tower Chassis serial number sticker is located on the bottom side
Rack-mountable Systems' Serial Number is located at the rear side by I/O panel
Embedded Systems' Serial Number is located on the I/O panel
