Hi, I recently fix an old computer.
Upgrade from DDR2 512MB to 4GB DDR2 533Mhz and Integrated Graphics to AMD Radeon HD 5450 and other things.
It came with an old Pentium 4 3.0Ghz so i change for a Intel Core 2 Duo E6750, but... won't start
I upgrade to the lastes bios (07/05/15) and this update support 4xx,E6xxx,E4xxx,E2160 series cpu.
So, I was wondering if someone has an answer.



Note: the E6750 is a 65 nm and the motherboard suppor 65 nm the last supported cpu is an E6420.
Note 2: Only want to repair it, is for visitors. It is a project and don't like leaving things half

What is the model of your motherboard or computer? When selecting a new processor the nm doesn't matter from a compatibility perspective. All that matters at point is whether or not the BIOS manufacturer chose to support that model of core 2 duo!

Also, can you define "won't start?" Does anything happen at all when you press the power button?

The answer îs very simple. Your motherboard doesn't support the Intel core2duo e6750. You can put an e6700, e6600, e6400. I have hâd the same motherboard and the same problem, bought a core2duo e6750 and didn't support it.
