hello i have an old sony eom desktop (vgc-rb30) that was running a 32bit pentium 4. I wanted to upgrade the processor so put in a core 2 duo 64 bit processor. i checked the socket 775 support list and the socket should support the newer cpu, But when i press power button it turns on for a split second than shuts down. Why isnt it working? is there a way to make it work?
