[SOLVED] Upgrade by Core 2 Duo E6750 TO Core 2 Quad Q9650

[Dome916]

Mobo: Intel DQ35JO
CPU: Intel Core2 Duo E6750
Ram: 8GB DDR2 Ram
Graphics Card: Nvidia Geforce 960GTX
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64bit
Bios: v1143 (seems to be the latest one?)

Try to install a Intel Q9650 for more performance, but seems not to work with my Windows 10 64bit OS... always have a Blackscreen after Windows Logo when startup...

Can't beliebe but according to Google Search its not compatible?

Is there a Workaround for Intel Q9650 with 64bit Win10?

If not, can you recommend me some best possible CPUs I can fit in? Thanks

Win10 x64 should run on that CPU.

I have a Q9550 and a E5450 (both LGA775) and they run Windows 10 x64 just fine.

Try to run the Startup Repair by following the steps here: https://www.avg.com/en/signal/fix-w...indows repair,fixes your black screen problem.

Can't believe how quickly these processors phased out....Made waves in late 06' and less than 2 years later, the i7 nehalems came out.

This is a clarification of an errata to my previous post:

Although I was able to really use a Xeon E5450 (LGA771) on an LGA775 board, I did so with a hacked CPU and a modified BIOS. This was done last year and at the time I wrote my reply above, this fact didn't immediately occur to me. I was just able to catch it now. Doh!

Thanks for the advices, i see the new CPU is definitely recognized by the Bios..

I also try many things like a BIOS reset or Safe Mode, but there is no chance to bootup Windows, it alway ends with a Blackscreen

Maybe the next few days i will try a Win 10 reinstall via USB again..
