Hello max-bit,

I am going to move this thread to the CPU Support Upgrades forum where it can get more attention from CPU Support personnel.

I added microcode to the BIOS (from de-soldered IC and I read Bios, then re-soldered IC)
Unfortunately still motherboard does not support CPU (i7-3770T)
I suppose there is some element of the bios which is still responsible for the operation of the processor.

This is the link to the bios that im using.

I tried to install an i5-3330, and it wont boot, it will throw itself into a cycle where it turns on, then shuts off after a second. there are no beeps to help with errors.
My current cpu is an i3-2120 sandy bridge. my mobo is a mih61r from an optiplex 390. the i5 that i wasnt to use for the upgrade is an ivy bridge 3rd gen cpu, but no matter what i try the cpu just wont work. I dont want to have to sell this cpu, and buy another one. can someone help me out here?

Find BIOS chip on your motherboard and write down information from it.

[PapaGooselli]

I may have just found it, all the stuff on the chip reads
Mxic mx 25L3206E M21-12G 7A481400 L114098

This 4MB BIOS chip, but compatible BIOS for your motherboard (with Ivy Bridge support) requires 8MB BIOS chip.
