Toshiba Satellite L650-1NT - bios modification for i7-820QM

[Koko146]

Hello, I need a bios modification for Toshiba Satellite L650-1NT to support 4-core processors for example i7-820QM. Is there such a possibility?

Post a screenshot of Mainboard tab of CPU-Z.
Show a screenshot of Device Manager with expanded Display adapter node.

OK.
Explain exactly what happens when you try to boot with new CPU.

In general, the laptop responds to the switch, but there is no picture. To turn it off I have to hold down the button for a long time, which is not the case with a running processor. The processor itself heats up also gets power.

I haven't found any problems (in this BIOS) related to Clarksfield core.
This laptop officially supports Arrandale only.
So I think it's hardware incompatibility.

So there is no way to run this processor in this laptop? Will any of the 4 core processors designed for this sockets work?

Any BIOS mods can't help.

And another processor designed for this sockets from i7 series 4 core would work?

Read this thread attentively.
There is no quad-core CPU with the Arrandale core.
