Short Story: Can please "C1E Disable" be added to this BIOS? Thanks
Long Version:
Hello everyone
I've got an Acer MG43M mainboard (Intel G43 chipset).
Being an enterprise motherboard, several options are missing from the BIOS,and that would normally not be a problem.
Lately, I installed a Xeon E5430 CPU on it (it's easy, see www.delidded.com).
I added the missing microcode to the latest bios, and it worked on first try.
The only problem is that Xeon doesn't play very well with C1E (Enhanced Halt State) and one of the options this BIOS is missing is the one to disable it.
Can someone please help me adding this option back in the bios?
Attached file contains both the original bios and the one with the updated microcode.
Many thanks!
