Bios Mods -The Best BIOS Update and Modification Source

Current CPU: Intel i3-3220 2C/4T
Unsupported CPU: Intel i5-2500K 4C/4T

Motherboard is Joshua H61 uATX, can't seem to find BIOS updates from HP website.

Edit: BIOS can be found here: https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software1...p70376.exe

Attached is screenshot of CPU and Mainboard in CPU-Z. If I try to install the i5, an error saying "Unsupported CPU Installed, shutting down computer"

Can anyone help me unlock this CPU on my bios? And if so how would I flash the BIOS. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Try to flash my mod.

Ok, do I do this with HP USB Format Tool and AFUDOS?

Extract safuwin.exe from sp70376.exe
And run in command line with administrative rights:
safuwin JOS_820.ROM /p /b /n /r

Just tried, gave me "Incorrect BIOS for system" error.

Try
safuwin JOS_820.ROM /p /b /n /r /x

Now Safuwin gives me an unknown command error and a list of commands.

Show result with modded safuwin.exe:
safuwin JOS_820.ROM /p /b /n /r

OK. Do it with mod2 of safuwin.
