I saw the unlocked bios for the dell n7010; but, I was unaware as if to whether or not it allowed compatability with quad core processors. [I have an i7-740qm that I'd like to use; the intel chipset on board, and the socket should both allow for this processor, but the stock bios appears to be locked to dual core processors] The additional draw is only about eight watts; so that shouldn't be a problem either since I don't currently have the LCD attached. I've already asked in the n7010 thread, but I've posted this just in case that particular mod doesn't allow for quad core processors.

Hi,

What processor are you thinking about upgrading to?

http://www.notebookreview.com/notebookre...7r-review/ is this the laptop? I know the processor is an I3 but I am wondering if it's the correct model.

http://www.aida64.com/downloads - AIDA64 ExtremeTrial version, portable ZIP package - Generate a report if you can for me Big Grin

if you are able to, I would like to try and help you determine if your system is able to run any quad cores or indeed what the possible cores you may be able to run.

It is that model; though a variant with an i5-460m and an ATI radeon mobility 5450 instead of an i3 with intel intergrated graphics.

The processor in question is the i7-740qm. they're both first gen, and they use the same slot; also the chipset -should- support quad cores, but as I'm well aware the manufactures can whitelist processors locking out unincluded ones (which seems to be the case here. already tried to install it, had to reinstall the i5) so was mostly curious if there was a way around it.

here is the report you requested as well.

Thanks for that, Can you confirm that your processor is the PGA988? (it would mean the processor is able to be removed from its socket)
there are 2 version of your I5 which is why I am asking.

However I believe if you were to buy the processor and they are the PGA988 then the laptop should be able to run it as they share the same chipset and socket and Family of processor Smile

Yep g1/rPGA988a. as I said I already swapped it; same pinout, same socket in the specs, I believe the chipset it's running is hm55, which both should be compatible with... When I booted it up though the bios didn't seem to recognize the processor, and so it didn't post and finish booting [sat for a short period of time then turned itself off, no beep or led codes] and so I reinstalled the i5. I've read that a lower end 'cousin' of the i7 I have worked; but it was the i7-620m which is also rPGA988a except dual core. So it seems something in the bios makes it so that it only recognizes dual core.
