Hey guys,

Any chance someone could add support for i5 760 & x3430 to the BIOS I've attached?

Cheers

Post a screenshot of third (Mainboard) tab of CPU-Z.
Explain exactly what happens when you try to boot with i5-760 or Xeon X3430.

I get a long single beep.
No post at all.
The PC is capable of using 95W processors as it supports i7 860/870 and also i5 750.

I currently don't have a hard drive/SSD installed in the Acer machine to bring up CPUZ details.
What exactly do you need to know?

MB.SE509.001 is the motherboard version.
P01.A3 is the current BIOS version

I've read the manual and the long continuous beep suggests a memory issue but when I throw the i3 540 back into the machine it boots without any problems.

Long beep is with both of those CPU's and they have been tested on another 1156 and working properly.

Download Intel ME System Tools v6
Run MEInfo in command line with administrative rights and show results.
