Foxconn G31MV(-K) for Xeon L5420 upgrade
#1
Hello,

I have a Foxconn G31MV board, and bought a cheap Xeon L5420 CPU as an upgrade today. I did the necessary BIOS microcode modification and flashed the new BIOS, but I keep getting the following error after mounting the new CPU:

Warning !!!
This motherboard only supports low power energy-saving CPUs (less than 65W).
Your current CPU is not supported, and the system will shut-down soon.
Please visit Foxconn support website for supported CPU information.

The thing is, L5420's TDP is stated as 50W.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I still need a photo of your motherboard.
I think it's rebranded Foxconn G31MV(-K)
