Can i upgrade the bios

Why don't you look at the support section of the Gigabyte website? That is where you will need to go to download it anyway.

I upgraded mine to an Intel Core 2 Duo T5600 (Stepping SL9U3), and it's working fine. It's faster, dual core, 64 bit and supports VT, I have more details on my website here: https://www.sambartle.co.uk/technology/asus-x50r/

Go to www.asus.com.tw and search for the newest BIOS upgrade for you motherboard. Full instructions will be available on the website.

It sounds as if your motherboard will support the CPU however the BIOS software you are running doenst know if the newer CPU. A BIOS flash upgrade should solve the problem.

In short, yes you can upgrade to a P4 cpu but from the compatibility chart at Intel support, it looks like the upper limit for this older board is the P4 2.6GHz.

Note: Even at that, running the P4 2.6 would require a BIOS upgrade to P12 or greater.

Luckily, the following link has the information you seek: (for BIOS info, click the "BIOS Version" link in the upper right corner of the compatibility table provided)

Intel D845HV CPU Compatibility

I hope this info is helpful!

From the Intel website. Click here to visit the page.

Remember to follow the upgrade instructions exactly. Intel does not recommend to upgrade the BIOS if the old one is working fine.

Hello,

Yes you can. Take it to your nearby Technician and ask him to replace it with the Intel Core 2 Duo. Have fun!

Regards

Any computer system cannot work without a BIOS, so why would you like to remove it?
If you want to update it you need a utility you probably can find on the Sony dedicated website.
If you want to replace the BIOS chip by yourself it should be easy to find on the motherboard but doing so will definitely void the warranty.
I hope to have been helpful, but please provide better explanation of your needs.

Usually breaking the seal will void a warranty. This is a question you should address with Acer themselves...Do not break the seal until you have checked with them...

Hope this helps...

If you upgrade it and everything goes ok the warranty should be ok.
Some people have problems upgrading bios files and render the motherboard unusable. If that happens you may have a problem with warranty. But only if you tell them you did it.

first of all u always had to packup ur bios befor updating,however you can log to the web site and get an older version of the bios or u can copy that from any person who has the same M.B by using the update program it recommendes the packup acceptit and save the bios file on the hdd and stop the upgrade
take that file with u to ur pc and upgrade from it
