Hello guys,
I have motherboard AIMB-272 from Advantech and I tried to use Intel 3630QM (CPUID 306A9 (QCF5)) but it is not working as it is generation 3 CPU and board officially support generation 2 only. However gen2 and gen3 CPUs have the same pinouts and there are many boards which support both, so I think it may be "just" the thing of updating BIOS.
BIOS can be found here http://support.advantech.com/Support/Dow...e=Download - click on Primary or Secondary download server.
To meet that goal I experienced two problems so far:
1. I cannot find proper CBROM version which would display information in the BIOS file properly, and which would extract BIOS file from the BIN file. I tried versions 1.82, 1.96, 2.15, 2.20, 32_149 without luck. I also found old CBROM version (1.26B) on Advantech site http://support.advantech.com/support/Kno...ledge+Base but it is not really working /D displays size and space, but I cannot extract BIOS. Can you please check if you can find CBROM utility which will work so you can extract BIOS from that BIN file?
2. I'm having problem to find microcode file for 3630QM (CPUID 306A9) CPU. It is not listed here https://downloadcenter.intel.com/search?...+Data+File and even when I downloaded that file (microcode-20150121.tgz) it only contains microcode.dat file which contains text data but there is no microcode binary. Do you please know where to download microcode files for my CPU?
Also please note that this CPU is actually laptop CPU using not very common socket - Socket G2 rPGA 988/989.
Thank you very much!!!
