Hp pavillion m7480n (Emery2): CPU Upgrade

[mackb44]

Hi there,

I am new to modding bios so am looking for any help i can get.
Any info would be much appreciated and if someone has made a similar request or post please let me know.

I am running an Hp pavillion m7480n, asus p5lp-le (emery) mobo with phoenix 3.19 BIOS, running windows 8 (64bit)

I currently have a pentium D 930 presler  3.0ghz and am looking to upgrade to a core 2 duo 6700 a friend gave me.

this is my current bios version:

i think this bios has support for the processor i am looking to add:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softw...ndex?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&softwareitem=pv-60363-1

these are different iterations of the same p5lp-le board. The mobo i have should be able to support the chip as same socket, bus, cache etc. i think its just a bios version limitation but im not 100% sure.
Anyways hope someone can help!
Thanks in advance
