[Request] HP Compaq DX6100 BIOS
#1
Good day!

There is an old HP Compaq dx6100 Microtower (DX6100MT). Chipset Intel 915G.

Сhipset specification supports processors up to Intel Pentium 4 670.
http://ark.intel.com/products/27487/Inte...00-MHz-FSB
http://www.cpu-world.com/sspec/SL/SL7Z3.html


BIOS for dx6100
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=12454&prodSeriesId=402168&swItem=ir-63388-1&prodNameId=402170&swEnvOID=1093&swLang=13&taskId=135&mode=4&idx=0


According to datasheet for dx6100, it supports a max. Intel Pentium 4 Processor 540 with HT Technology (3.2-GHz, 1 MB L2 cache, 800 MHz FSB)
http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quick...8_div.HTML


But in HP Community members say that DX6100 supports at least a Pentium 640 processor
http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Business-PC...rue#M53606


The dx6100 BIOS is suitable for HP Compaq dc7100 Convertible Minitower (DC7100CMT).
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=473284&prodTypeId=12454&prodSeriesId=402163&swLang=13&taskId=135&swEnvOID=1093


According to datasheet for dc7100, it supports the Intel Pentium 4 670 Processor (3.8-GHz, 2 MB L2 cache, 800 MHz FSB)
http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/quick...8_div.HTML


DX6100 and DC7100 use the same chipset - 915G.

Thus, the restriction of installation the Pentium 4 670 in dx6100 embedded in BIOS software.

Will anyone modify BIOS and remove this restriction?

I will be glad to answer to anyone.

I apologize for my English.

Thanks!



P.S.: Possibly this restriction is set not in BIOS, but in Processor Microcode Update
