Acer Extensa 7630 ez Phoenix Bios
#1
Hello guys,

I have an acer extensa 7630 ez with a very Strange MotherBoard called Acer Monserrat2 (never see a post about this MB). This laptop runs with an Intel CPU Pentium T4300 (Penryn core). He is very slow so i would like to replace it by a Intel® Core™2 Duo Processor T9500 (SLAYX): http://ark.intel.com/fr/products/33918/I...SB?q=t9500

The chipset of my MB is an intel GL40 and should support this processor (http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/...9/page-24) cause it's the same core (penryn), same bus speed 800 Mhz and same thermal design power (35 watts). So at first sight, no reason to have hardware compatibility problems but what about the bios?

The bios installed for my MB is a Phoenix one version 3821 (see in attachment). I am not sure this Bios can support this new cpu and acer gives absolutely no support about. Maybe i need to unlock something in the bios or to add the microcode of the new processor.

So my questions are:
1. Can i use the new cpu t9500 with this current bios? Thanks to acer, i have to disassembly nearly all my laptop to change the cpu. So i would like to be sure or at least very confident it ll work before this operation.  
2. if i can't use the new cpu with the current bios, can you help me to modify my bios?

In advance thanks for your ideas, help and for the great job you achieve with this site.

Olivier

ps: sorry for my English

I found this post http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/...2/page-216 about a bios mod for Extensa 7630. Do you think it will work with my model Extensa 7630EZ. I doubt cause it's not the same chipset on both laptop. GM45 for 7630 and GL40 for 7630ez.

Hello olvin82,

Your BIOS mod is complete! You can find the archive with the modified BIOS image at the bottom of this post.

I have unlocked the hidden INTEL Menu.

I successfully upgraded my notebook's CPU under the same conditions. In my case, however, my systems's FSB speed was 533MHz initially. After the upgrade, since the old CPU was the only bottleneck, the system FSB speed was raised to 667MHz. The BIOS will probably not be an issue, though I cannot give any guarantees.

Generic Warnings/Disclaimers:
Quote:Please remember to take proper precautions when flashing your BIOS. Even if the BIOS image is safe, the flashing process can still fail. Make sure that [if applicable] your notebook is fully charged (100%), that the power adapter is properly connected, and that the chance of a power outage occurring is as minimal as possible. Do not interrupt the flashing process. If possible, it is good practice to have a working CRISIS recovery disk handy when flashing your BIOS. Use the flashing instructions for your particular computer brand. DO NOT DO ANYTHING UNNECESSARY!!!

I take absolutely NO responsibility for ANY damages that may occur to you, your computer, your personal belongings, your neighbor's cat, or any other personnel or equipment as a direct or indirect result or consequence of your, or any one else's, use or misuse of any of the files that are in this archive at the present or at any time in the past or the future. You assume full responsibility for any damages or inconveniences that may occur by choosing to flash, or otherwise use or misuse, this image or any of the other files within this archive.

Have fun! Smile

Please remember to post the results of the BIOS flash!
