So yes, the Supermicro x8dal-3 and x8dal-i shipped saying all over it supports 5600 series Cpus. And that's true. It does but it requires a bios update. Then it works with 2 CPUs. You must boot with 1 cpu to get it to post and update the bios. Also these boards, beware of overheating...

I have the exact same problem. Mine will run with 1 CPU in the 1st socket, just not with both. I'm currently trying to update the BIOS and then put the second CPU back in. I'll keep you posted. -R
