Solved CPU Upgrade Error.(Intel Core 2 Wuad q8400 LGA 775, Old One)

  • 0

Hello,
I recently upgraded into a new processor Intel core 2 quad Q8400(used one) and the system boots up and get stucked at verifying DIM pool data. I don’t know what the problem is.

-I have updated the latest BIOS that supports the new processor.
-Reset the CMOS

I put back the old processor and it boots up like normal. When I put back the new one, the same problem occurs.

My old processor is Intel Pentium dual core e5400.

My motherboard is GA-G31M-ES2C.

I know its an ancient system, but I just wanna used the old computer up as I m very tight on budget.

Can anyone help me? thanks.

      Amount of memory is enough if you are running 32bit version of windows 7, not enough really for 64bit version and you should be running two identical sticks of memory sold as a matched pair to take full advantage of dual channel mode. If you are purchasing memory, get a matched set 4GB (2x2GB set) for 32bit and 8GB (2x4GB set) for 64bit Windows 7.

      You have to be a little bit crazy to keep you from going insane.
