Dell Inspiron 530s - Pentium d 920 compatibility

[kernelfergus]

hi guys. i have a dell inspiron 530s with a g33m02 motherboard, and the original cpu, a pentium dual e2180 has since been used elsewhere.

i have an old pentium d 920 that i would like to use in the dell, which should work (has the same socket, along with chipset requirements), but dell has blocked it, and it refuses to boot.

i was wondering if anybody could add this cpu to the bios for this system to save me the time/effort/money of finding another replacement cpu?

the only bios i can find is an exe file from the dell website, which i have downloaded: http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/e...piron-530s

i can re-acquire the pentium dual core e2180 temporarily for a bios update but would need to return it soon after.

this is the cpu i would like to use:
