Hi everyone, new to bios modding and would appreciate some help. I have a Foxconn G41S with an Intel G41 chipset. I got a xeon L5410, added the microcode for the processor to the bios using mmtool and flashed it. At post the processor name comes up on the screen and the system does a quick memory test, which once done I get a warning telling me that the motherboard only supports 65w processors, and the system shuts down. But the L5410 has a 50w tdp so it should work.
Is there a way to modify this tdp value, or bypass the check. I'm not even sure where it's getting the greater than 65w value from. I opened the bios in amibcp but I'm not even sure what I'm looking for at this point.
I attached the bios with the injected microcode, and a cpu-z log with the motherboard running a c2d e8400. Thank you kindly for looking!
