Hi,

I know that this is very old mobo but just trying to reuse something and squeeze as much as possible from it. 
Bought xeon L5420 (TDP 50W), done the sticker, updated bios microcode, I know that motherboard supports CPU's up to 65w TDP, but when trying to boot I am getting:
''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.''

Is there any way to go around this?

Thanks a lot already installing windows! 

Sorry to be a pain, but by any chance there is way to unlock overclocking from bios? 
I can chance multiplier (lower it) but FSB is greyed out.

Unlocking is offtopic in this section.
