Dell XPS ONE A2010 CPU Upgrade

[DeathBringer]

Try to flash my second version of mod.

I was able to flash with biosupdate.bat and E4500 proc. Still stucked at boot with Q8400S processor. Then I reflashed the original bios.

Bad news. So I can't help you...

Is it a mobile LGA 775 microcode or a desktop LGA 775 microcode on this machine ? Desktop I guess ?
Step 6 - If you're updating your old microcode, delete all of the old microcodes that match your processor's CPUID. You did that ?

[DeathBringer]

I've added suitable microcode for your Q8400S. It didn't help.

Anyone wants to look further ?

Here is the last bios for the Dell XPS One 24. https://downloads.dell.com/bios/AIO114.EXE - The original processor is a Q8200. Someone wants do do a comparison with the XPS One 20 bios ? https://downloads.dell.com/bios/R215335.EXE

Hello

I think to have inserted the Microcode for recognizing the new CPU Q9950s.

Now I would try to flash the BIOS from my DELL A2010 first with the original BIOS 2.06 from the DELL site, for seeing if the procedure is working
and for beeing sure if I can reflash the original one if my modified flash would fail.

But while following the instruction for introducing the BIOS - I get the message:
  C.\Winflash\afuadm.lnk is not a valid Win32 application.

I think there is mainly a prob with the extension: lnk
The system is running with Win10 home 32-bit

Could anyone help me out, please ?

Thanks

Have a nice day
