I have got an IBM Aptiva 2168-931 (Service Level H) with an rather unusual Opti Viper PCI chipset. With a custom VRM-Module from Necroware it is possible to employ every conceivable Socket-7-CPU, up to an AMD K6 3+ with 400 MHz. The respective CPUs are shown in BIOS as "Pentium" - which is fine with me.

There is one catch: the mainboard accepts CPUs to a clock frequency of 166 MHz. Even a non-MMX 200 MHz Pentium will produce an error 127, the CPU-Frequency is then recognized with 0 MHz. However, after exiting the BIOS, the PC runs fine, regardless of the frequency.

IBM-Aptiva_2168_Service-Level-H_BGOGR1L_6800_original.bin has bin extracted from an M28F101-150K1 -chip, using a T48.

Aptiva_2168-931_BIOS.zip is the product of mflash.exe, that produces a diskette-image for booting an IBM flash-program, that invokes a multi-language flash-process.

Perhaps there might be a possibility to alter this BIOS, so that CPUs > 166 MHz won't issue an error 127.

Cheers

On this machine, there has been a German version installed. BGO__1L ist the latest BIOS version for this computer. "__" stands for the respective language-codes.

It's running the latest bios available on the Acer website.

I would love to upgrade it with a Core 2 Quad Q9500 and an Radeon RX460, but I can't because of the BIOS. The RX460 works fine with only 2GB RAM inserted, but it hangs with 4 GB, so I think the issue is with memory remapping/memory hole on the Intel 3000 chipset, which apparently supports it in hardware but Dell doesn't offer this option in the settings. About the Q9500, the socket and TDP are not a problem, it doesn't currently work because the bios doesn't understand the microcode blob (0x10677) and probably has a whitelist of validated CPUs.

So I would like to request the following modifications to the BIOS:
[*]* Memory remapping enabled for Intel 3000 chipset
[*]* Q9500 microcode (CPUID 0x10677) added and CPU whitelist patched
[*]

Tell me if I have to provide something additionally because I'm not really knowledgeble in BIOSes.

I have an Fujitsu Esprimo D756/E9X (not sure if 94 or 90). It came with an Intel Core i3-6100.

I am using it as a homelab server. It's sufficient so far, but as more users find themselves using the server I thought it may be time for an upgrade. Thus I did some research and found the Intel Xeon E3-1245v5. It uses the same socket and some pages/articles claim they are compatible with the Q150 chipset of the D3431. I even found a store selling the Esprimo D756 with the Intel Xeon 1275v5.
The store: https://www.workstation4u.de/Konfigurati...0404010114

I bought the CPU and went to try it out... Upon powering on the system I can hear a relais click (from the PSU) and the power light on the front briefly turns on - then it turns off again.

The BIOS Version is R1.28.

Can anyone give me some more insight or maybe even point me to a solution?
Maybe a BIOS update is enough, maybe there is a modded BIOS or it is just restricted by Intel and/or Fujitsu.
I also can't entirely rule out I have a defective Xeon chip.

Thanks

Recently got a Dell Precision 3431 with an i7 7900 and I plan on eventually upgrading that to i9 9900 (still looking for a good deal), few hours ago I came across a facebook marketplace post on a Dell Optiplex 3050 barebones for a really good price and noticed that it shares the same socket as my i7.

Is it possible at all to use my i7 9700 on a Optiplex 3050?

Saw mix answers, so I wanted to ask here since I've seen some people have relative success in doing so.]]>

I have an old (from 2009) laptop Acer Aspire 7736ZG with an intel T4300.
I would like to replace the T4300 by a Core 2 mobile P9700 CPU.

https://valid.x86.fr/7v093q

The BIOS don't have the microcode of the P9700.

Can you help me to upgrade the bios with the good new microcode ?

Here are the files I have found :

Original BIOS v2.10
Microcode : 06-17-0a (Can you verify I am not wrong with this one ?)

So I bought Q9000 and immediately updated the BIOS to its latest version, F.20 (date December 2011). Despite that, the laptop refuses to boot with Q9000. It is booting normally only with CPU P8400 and T9600.

I made an online research and found out that indeed my chipset supports C2Q but the basic problem is that the necessary CPU microcodes are missing from the BIOS. So I have two questions:

Can someone more experienced edit the latest F.20 BIOS for me in order to inject the necessary microcodes for supporting Core2Quad Q9000/Q9100?
Would I be able to reflash my laptop with the modded version of F.20 BIOS or not? I know that some laptops accept ONLY NEWER BIOS versions and refuse flashing lower versions or even same versions.

Thanks.]]>
