Here is a link to the BIOS file

Thanks!

It wouldn't post at all. I used a Tutorial I found and added the microcodes myself.

Hi ,
I owe an Abit IP35 Pro motherboard and have flashed it to the latest available BIOS. Recently i tried a q9550 E0 revision on the motherboard, but it doesn't support the processor. I tried flashing the older bios as well, but it didn't help. After trying a lot, i manage to boot my system.

But the booting occurs after 10-15 power cycle, incase of failure the POST code as shown on the motherboard appears as 87.

I did some reseach and found that the error code is mainly due to the unsupported processor and motherboard.

Is it possible to add the microcode of Q9550 E0 revision, to my motherboard BIOS? Will it solve my problem?

Here is the link of the BIOS that i am using currently

I have no idea where to look for the microcode of Q9550 E0 revision, but here is its official page. Please note that compatibility of processor varies with revision E0 / C0

Hi,

I have used the Official Abit v18 (Latest BIOS With E0 Stepping CPU Added) - Thanks to the kind soul who managed to grab the entire FTP contents and host a mirror of it before Abit went down!

I compared the CPU Microcodes from the latest BIOS for the Abit X38 Quad GT which officially supports the Q9550 CPU. However they both appear to have IDENTICAL microcodes!

Here is the Official version of the v18 BIOS with E0 Stepping CPU Support added straight from Abit. Try this first
