The Q6600 and Q6700 are supposedly compatible with this system if the latest BIOS is installed. However it is not working (computer won't boot, fan on full speed,...). If someone could please provide me with the Microcodes I would be very appreciative. Thanks.
Post screenshots of first (CPU) & third (Mainboard) tabs of CPU-Z with native CPU.

Here's the info, had to put that crap Pentium back in.
Those idiots over at Dell were driving me insane...
Well. FSB=800 Mhz now.
Code:
Core Speed 1399.9 MHz
Multiplier x Bus Speed 7.0 x 200.0 MHz
Rated Bus speed 800.0 MHz
How you increase frequency to stock value (2333 MHz)?

I'm sorry, what is the question? Are you saying I lowered the core speed somehow?
Your CPU runs with lowered speed now. Are you sure that it can run with normal frequency?

I can't believe I didn't notice that. I've seen other people get better results than me, but right now it's not moving past 1.4 GHz...Intel Speedstep is off, and I'm using a Bitsum Highest Performance Power Plan. Even tried messing with a CPU Core Parker. I got nothing. Any ideas?
The reason is incompatible CPU's FSB.
E6550 has FSB=1333Mhz, but
RC415 doesn't support it.
You can try to boot
Q6x00 with FSB=800Mhz with
BSEL mod.
You need to isolate
BSEL1 pad with scotch tape. Look at a picture to find the proper pad:
After this modding check
Q6x00's speed on other motherboard. E.g. in your
Optiplex 780.
BTW:
vikigo told you about lowered speed:
Quote:Hi, I have found this PC today and I am going to try q6600 this week, but can you please check your procssor fr. with CPU-Z bcause my E6750 is runing @1.6GHz and FSB is 800MHz.
