Help with upgrading Dell Vostro 200 to Xeon X5272
#1
Hello all, I'm new to this so I'm really inexperienced. I have an old Dell Vostro 200 at home (currently with Core2 Duo E8400) that I want to upgrade to a dual core Xeon X5272 so that it can run as a 64 bit system. Can someone guide me through modding the bios and installing the modded bios on the computer? Thanks!

Tell sSpec of your Xeon X5272.
Explain exactly what happens when you try to boot with your Xeon.
Post a screenshot of third (Mainboard) tab of CPU-Z with supported CPU.

sSpec: SLANH

When I try to boot with the Xeon, the system fans remain on high and the system beeps repeatedly beeppausebeeppausebeep... ,which apparently indicates Motherboard failure. It booted fine when I put the C2D back in.

Your motherboard is based on G33 without support for FSB=1600 Mhz.
So you can't use your Xeon X5272 with this motherboard.

Thanks. I guess I didn't do my research well enough on this. Do you think that there would be any problem with an X5260 or X5270 with 1333MHz FSB?

I think it's senseless. Your current E8400 is almost the same with Xeon E5240.
BTW: E8400 supports "64 bit system".

I've been an idiot this whole time Big Grin  I just assumed that because it was running 32 bit Windows that the C2D wasn't 64-bit capable. Thank you so much for all of your help!
