LGA 771 to 775 Adapter Question ! !

[Waqas17]

Hi,
I want to know is there anything else that i can use instead of that lga 771 adapter for modding xeon processor to 775 socket mobo?
I'm from Pakistan and ebay/amazon does not ship to my country, also aliexpress has some issues shipping here.
I have search each and every place in my local area PC shops but sadly i cant find them.
Also i saw a video where a guy used a tape on Q6600 to unlock that full capacity FSB, i know its irrelevant but can i use a simple tape on those two points?
I have attached an image of a adapter im talking about.
Please let me know if there is any possible way to do that.
Thanks

If you were carefull yes you could use electrical tape and make your own.

Yes, i was not sure if that work, i was thinking of putting tape on those two points of processor.

Im doing it now.

Make sure you make you tape exactly covering the points not any extra covering others or less not completely covering the correct points.

Ok, so after doing everything,
First it was only rebooting again n again than i reseated Processor now im not getting any display
-Motherboard = Asus P5K-V
-Updated Bios
-Reset CMOS
-Previous Processor worked for once than its also not working any more.
-GPU fan, motherboard Light, CPU Cooler fan is running.

Did you make sure that it had the correct bios ? for the 771 series some of them will work but some have a lot of issues.
You really have to make sure you have all the micrcode updated. there are several videos around on this.

Yes i downloaded that bios from a site specially for xeon 771 mod.
This issue ( showing no display + old processor not working ) happend when i accidently inserted wrong side of x5460 and ran a computer, after that there is no display not even on old processor, also no beeps n stuff.

If you incerted the cpu incorrectly and powere it up it may have shorted out.

Shorted a mobo or cpu ?
Coz all other things like fans of cpu, gpu n case are running

Yes sadly motherboard is dead.
I test my Q9400 on other motherboard and its working fine.
Looks like it was a bad idea to put x5460 wrong in the motherboard socket.

Yep its sort of tricky it can be done but theres no promise if you do it 100 percent correctly it will work.

Nah, it was my mistake.
I shouldnt seated the CPU wrongly.
Now im worried if my Xeon is also got fried.
