HI
I have Asus P5PL2-E motherboard based on i945G chipset :
http://www.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=3& ... odelmenu=2
and I use this AMI Bios file :
http://dlsvr04.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/soc ... S-1002.zip
I like to make support for 45nm cpu E5200 and I don't know how to do it.
On asus forum they have told me that it is not supported because motherboard VRD is version 11.0 and it should be 11.1.
BUT I think they don't like to make support for it because I have found one unnoficial beta bios for Asrock ConRoe945G-DVI based on same chipset and also without official support of this cpu's. This is the link of the motherboard :
http://www.asrock.com/mb/overview.asp?M ... -DVI&s=775
ane here is the link of the bios file, both use AMI BIOS :
http://www.pctreiber.net/downloads/conr ... er.net.zip
Can someone help me or make change to my BIOS so I can use this cpu ?? There is no POST when I put this cpu.
Thanks[/url]

email asus tech support instead of using the forums. they may or may not have a beta bios with 45nm support, if not you might get the answer the hardware on your board is not compatible e.g. smoke-proof.
