Hi All,

I have a OEM mb with Intel 945g chipset. It currently has a celeron 3.2 LGA proc in it. When i tried to upgrade to a Duo core it would load up to the OS and then crash with a IRQ..error.

I was wondering if its my BIOS? It seems to recognize the new processor as a duo core and even booted up once or twice but consistently fails to load properly.

Is it possible that the power requirements of the Pentium D 950 exceeds that of the mother board? When i drop my old proc back in everything is fine.

I also noticed that the Bios beeps during memory checks. I upgraded the member of the box from the original 512.

I tried going to esupport but they couldn't figure out the the proper bios.

All i know if that it loads up with Phoenix ServerBios v6.01. The motherboard is unnamed and most likely OEM.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance!
