Hello to everybody

I am owner of ThinkPad Edge E520 with i7 2820QM CPU which have 45W TDP and produce much of Heating for notebook cooler.

I find on http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/mb-Intel_%28c...press.html that HM65 Chipset can support IvyBridge i7 3612QE which have 35W TDP so I bought it. Today

I try to install it into my notebook and my ThinkPad won't start so I back i7 2820 QM.

Can you update my BIOS image with 3612QE and QM microcodes and I will try again or give me instructions how to do it?
