Hello,

I have a Foxconn G31MV board, and bought a cheap Xeon L5420 CPU as an upgrade today. I did the necessary BIOS microcode modification and flashed the new BIOS, but I keep getting the following error after mounting the new CPU:

Warning !!!
This motherboard only supports low power energy-saving CPUs (less than 65W).
Your current CPU is not supported, and the system will shut-down soon.
Please visit Foxconn support website for supported CPU information.

The thing is, L5420's TDP is stated as 50W.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
Try to flash my mod.

I still need a photo of your motherboard.
I think it's rebranded Foxconn G31MV(-K)
