Windows 7 64bit -> (this is as direct a link as I could find, sorry) I am requesting a modded BIOS so I can hopefully recover functionality of intel speed step and also reduce the BSODs. I was told that to fix this I must get a modded bios with microcode for my new xeon processor and microcode for my old LGA 775 processor (just for safety). (If I try enabling it, computer will not boot and I must clear CMOS). I also noticed that Intel Speed Step technology is not working. I am also gettting occasional BSODs saying "try disabling memory functions such as caching and shadowing in the BIOS or remove recently installed hardware". BIOS update is required to unleash its full power" yet I already have the latest BIOS. I am getting a boot error message "Unknown CPU detected. I is booting up but there are some instability issues. Hello I have succesfully modded an LGA 775 socket and threw in Xeon processor. I rather like this motherboard and would like NOT to brick it. I'd rather ask & pay an expert, and apparently this is also where you hang out! do I have to pull out some other code for space?
#Aspire 5100 quad core how to
I get scared at the possibility that I might figure how to insert some 771 Xeon microcode- but what about checksums and ROM size issues. My bios can be found here- direct linking doesn't seem possible, version 0709Īt this point, I can only ask for help from you guys. I assume from reading much of this thread it is the lack of Microcode support despite sharing the 1067Ah CPUID of the Q9650. Hit F1 to resume and Windows attempts to load but crashes immediately with a quick message and reboots.įor giggles I noticed, Oddly, it will boot a Linux "Macrium Reflect" Recovery CD perfectly. POSTed immediately, correctly identified the CPU- listed & detected the drives, then Halted with a "Unknown CPU and Over Temp Warnings" "Please upgrade you bios for full features" A cheap Xeon is easier to replace.Īdded the pin swap sticker and completed installation.
#Aspire 5100 quad core mod
I decided to also mod the notches into the chip with a dremal instead of risking socket damage. My attempt is on a Asus P5E-VM HDMI, Bios v0709.

Thanks guys all help is greatly appreciatedĪs I am sure you are aware, there is a modification to install a Socket 771 cpu to 775 motherboards.įearlessly I became another user to add to the growing list for this handy mod. I would be very grateful if anyone can build a mod for this bios so that i can use AHCI option Or just reupload this link to any site. If someone could find this or repatch I would be grateful."Īs said this domain has expired and i cant find it someone also uploaded this īut again this has also expired when i googled this I found this link īut suprise suprise this link is also broken. Models: HP G61 G71 series with INTEL ProcessorsĬompaq Presario CQ61 CQ71 series with INTEL Processors btw this workes great loads more options than the the HP oneīut the main reason I need a new bios is so that I can change to AHCI mode I have searched these forums and have flashed this bios.
