Please if anyone can help me, I have an Acer V3-571-6652 and the default processor is an i3 2370M (Sandy Brigde), I bought a i7 3612QM (Ivy Brigde) to update it because I have the HM77 chipset.
But after making the switch, the notebook connects but nothing happens (no video, no boot) and after 1 minute the cooler off. Returning the i3 2370M notebook starts normally. TDP is 35W for both (intel).
I think it's due to the microcode BIOS... down his information:
Model: Aspire V3-571-6652
BIOS Version: 1.13.
Last BIOS Acer: http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/...ER&SC=PA_3
OS: Windows 7 Home Basic x64
Chipset is updated with the latest driver (by Intel Update)
Last microcode update Intel (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchR...rodId=3168)
Is it possible to unlock the BIOS in order to use the processor?
My notebook has this processor: i7 3612QM.
Thus came from the factory.
I believe that updating the bios already resolved.
You which BIOS version?
I'm using the latest website (v1.13) and is not recognized (it starts but shuts off after). I thought the upgrade would be common as I did on my Lenovo SL400 (look it is compatible with the chipset), because my BIOS is equal to its correct?
Thanks for the reply!
I read in some forum that all acer aspire v3 has the same bios. (not sure because I used the modification of this forum and have not had success with my notebook)
From what I I analyzed in the acer site exists several bios updates on the site.
If I do not mistake me the version of my bios was 1.17, I will try to confirm it and post it here for you.
Edit:
Version of my Bios: 2.07
All notebook acer aspire v3 use the same bios. I have reports from other models with the same bios.
I was looking on changing the microcode, and found this tutorial... (http://donovan6000.blogspot.com.br/2013/...codes.html) follow everything but do not know whether to go right (includes i7 3612QM CPUID in BIOS 1.13), I am afraid to upgrade and something happens with the notebook. Someone more experienced could take a look and see if realized right tutorial?

Thank you.
Edit: I just look in the BIOS 2:07 (Windows 8) and 2.17 (Windows 8) and 2:07 only to the CPU 2370M ID, but in 2:17 is in the CPU both ID (i3 2370M and i7 3612QM), then enter it in 1:13 it may work right? Or would have to upgrade to Windows 8 or use a partition with Windows 8 for the processor to be recognized?
