I just bought and installed a dell xps 435t/9000 socket 1366 motherboard. I got it to work with my dual core xeon. However if I try to put my e5645 hexacore it will power on but not do anything else. The fans and lights work and the hdds will spin though. I am wondering is a solution to this issue updating the bios? if not can someone shoot me a list for compatible hexacores (or quads if hexacores are a no-go) if anybody knows of any. Preferablly 2ghz or better. 1.6ghz is he lowest speed i'll touch.
