Hello from Bosnia and Hercegovina.
I am owner of Toshiba Satellite C660-107 (PSC0LE). At this moment it is running on Intel T4500 CPU. According to Intel chipset Identification Utility chipset there is an Intel PM45 chipset - formerly Cantiga (
supports 1066 MHz FSB CPU) installed on the motherboard. I tried to install P8400 CPU (1066 MHz FSB CPU) but unsuccesfull (laptop just starts and freeze without BIOS bootscreen). I suspect there is something wrong inside BIOS. I would appreciate it if you mod BIOS for me !
Thanks in advance.
P.S.
This is link to recently installed BIOS :

Hello everyone.
I am new to the forum and I am really happy to be here.
I am facing a problem with my
Toshiba c660-13r (short model no. PSC0LE) and I was wondering if someone could provide some help.
I have recently upgraded my CPU from a Celeron 925 to an Intel T7500. The laptop boots up correctly but unfortunately I am getting an error message during POST that reads:
Code:
02F0: CPU ID: FA No Microcode Update Loaded for Alternate Processor
Press <F1> to resume, <F2> to Setup
I updated to the latest bios (v170) from the toshiba site but no luck.
Can anyone please help with this issue? I would really appreciate it.
Thank you

I've analysed
latest BIOS 1.70 for microcodes:
Code:
Offset Size Version Date CPUID
0x1F20E0 1000 405 07/20/2007 010674 (Penryn ES)
0x1F30E0 1000 60C 01/19/2008 010676 (Penryn)
0x1F40E0 2000 A07 01/09/2008 01067A (Penryn)
0x1F60E0 1000 0A3 08/13/2007 0006FD (Merom)
And your
Core 2 Duo T7500 has CPUID=
0006FA.
First microcode is useless and can be replaced with new one for
0006FA.
Thanks for the information.
So this means that nothing can be done? Should I find a CPU with one of these microcodes?
You can try to replace microcodes.
Can you please tell me where I can find information about how I can change microcodes? I am all new to BIOS modding.
Thank you
I've made
mod for you.
You can try to flash it. Just unzip it and run
go.bat

So, if I had bought a T7100 it would work OK? Based on
this page from CPU-World the CPUID of the T7100 processor is 6FD as the one in the BIOS you analyzed.
