Hi, first post. I bought a cheapo server and I'm struggling to upgrade it. The upgrade options are quite limited, it appears that the motherboard only supports 50xx 53xx processors. I bought a matched pair of x5355's and I get a message saying - "processor power requirements too high" and it post post.
This seems like a software limitation more than anything else, is there any way I MOD the bios to accept the processors? not sure if the VRM's can handle a pair of 130W processors. The xeon upgrade options are limited the next pair of processors I can find are e5345's at a good price, but I'd rather get the x5355's working.
Please can anyone help me?
