hello there, i am new here and defo not a pro.
apologise if this post is under wrong category. i wasnt sure where to put it so if you guide me I will move it. also I hope that someone will read this within next 24h, coz time is really killing me.

please help me

my problem is the following: I am owner of mobo "P5LD2" (PCB Rev. 1.02) with latest bios revision "2002" and I bought new CPU from a dude (2nd hand) Intel Core Duo E6700. however I was stupid and forgot to check PCB of my mobo and when I inserted new cpu in socket, fans started to spin and that was all. no bios loading, no sounds, nothing. only black screen. then I inserted old cpu and all worked just fine. after long searching what causes this problem, i discovered that CPU works on my mobo only since "PCB Rev. 2.02G" :(

so my questions are:
is there any way how to make it work? somehow bypass pcb revision?? also I was thinking if I would take bios from "P5LD2-VM SE" and install it on my "P5LD2". would this work or I will damage whole system ? (P5LD2-VM SE - because there isnt pcb rev limitation next to E6700. is that stupid idea?)
I am so desperate :( i beg you for help.

regards...
EDIT: No, it won't likely work due to hardware limitations of the "P5LD2" (PCB Rev. 1.02). Which needs to be PCB Rev. 2.01G or later. Which I'll bet has everything to due with lack of hardware support for FSB > 800MHz. E6700 is FSB 1066MHz. Updating the BIOS won't fix that.

I see, thank you very much.
