Hi,
I was wondering how, generically, to upgrade the BIOS on a motherboard
to support a new CPU type?
The reason for my question is that of building a new system with one of
the MSI RS480M2-IL motherboards, but I also want to use one of the new
"Venice" core AMD 64 CPUs.
Assuming that the board comes with a BIOS that does not currently
support the Venice core CPU, and assuming that MSI has, or will have a
BIOS version that does support the Venice core CPU, how do I do the BIOS
upgrade?
Do I have to have two different CPU chips (an older non-Venice core CPU
and a Venice core CPU) to do this?
Thanks,
Jim
