Update: This is solved with the help of DeathBringer.

Hi everyone
I have an HP PRO 3500 G2 MT which came with an Intel G2030, I updated its microcode to latest to support i5-3470 which I’m using right now, ME version is latest 8.1, and I managed to get an i5-3570K but when I insert it and start the PC, I get CPU unsupported message then PC shuts off, I found out that i5-3470 and i5-3570K share same microcode, so technically it should work, but maybe HP is blocking it somewhere BIOS level.
So that’s the best I could do, now I’m seeking help from the experts.
HP PRO 3500 G2 MT Motherboard : H-CUPERTINO-H61-uATX: 4.00
BIOS : AMI 80.03
You can find BIOS backup attached

N.B. I do have the CH341A programmer.

Thanks in advance.

Do you have an official BIOS or just this dump?

Sorry for the late reply, wasn't at home.
   

I looked for official BIOS but found nothing.
This is the only BIOS dump I got.

Attached BIOS looks like modified - the microcode module has incorrect checksum.
Do you have original dump without changes?

I really don't know exactly where I placed my original backup dump, it's a mess on my pc.
I think one of these two should be the original, I hope.
I know my dump looks messed up, not sure if it was already like that because I bought this as a used pc, or maybe it's something I did.
