Hi . i just upgraded a lga 775 system with intel xeon x5450 cpu it has no problem booting and except for fan being loud it seems to work , my problem is it will install 32 bit windows but not 64 bit windows . im guessing it could be problem with microcode since xeon x5450 is lga771 and not fully supported by 775 bios but since it installs 32 bit and this is a 64 bit cpu i dont see why it shouldnt install?
the system is hp dx 7500 , 8 gb ddr2 , intel xeon x5450 lga 771 to 775 mod
