HP Compaq DC5800: Xeon Support

[kokos76]

I can take a POST card from a friend, maybe tomorrow. I saw how they put it into the PСI slot, but I never used it. Today i have access to three more dc5800s with non-updated bios, i.e. v1.59. I also have a computer with the MS-7525 motherboard, which I am now going to flash with the BIOS you upgraded. I will try to install in the MS-7525 X3633 E0 and E5450 C0.

OK.

Check your Xeon with these systems.

Can I flash your patch without updating the BIOS from 1.59 to 1.60?

[DeathBringer]

Yes.

Both xeons are serviceable. At MS-7525, both x3363 E0 and e5450 C0 started up and are functioning normally. So, with HP dc5800 there is no more chance? Probably there is something like a "cpu white list".

From the moment of switching on, EE EE and 00 00 flash alternately.

I do not know how to look :-). Maybe it was 33 33 - 00 00.
