[Request] Gateway ne56r34u CPU support mod

[linuxgod64]

I am in need of a mod to support an I7-640M. I had bought the CPU thinking the laptop I was putting it in supported that CPU, but I guess I was wrong. I know the chipset (HM55) will accept that CPU, so the BIOS is blocking it. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

CPU support needed : I7-640M

Thank you for your help.

I need a screenshot of third (Mainboard) tab of CPU-Z with supported CPU.
Tell sSpec of your i7-640M. Explain exactly what happens when you try to boot with it.

With the I7-640M installed, the laptop does absolutely nothing. No beeps or error codes.

The sSpec number is SLBTN.

I feel stupid, but after looking further at it, that CPU is wrong. Oh well, sorry for wasting your time.
