Intel Serverboard S5000VCL BIOS and 5060 processor problem

**Maddy07** · 27-10-2010

I own a intel server bios 5000VCL motheboard . When I upgrade bios it was s5000.86b.02.00.0054. I upgraded it to 98 bios to attempt if some quad core 5300 will work. After upgrade it begins to demonstrate that dual core xeon 5060 family in unsupported in bios. i found spare 5060 processor cpu and it works with it. But tried to install previous versions of bios, no luck. The problem is cannot find s5000.86b.02.00.0054 bios on intel site. Please help. Thanks.

The supported processor list is located here http://www.intel.com/support/motherb.../CS-023399.htm and does not catalog the 5xxx processors. I think that si not supported by intel . The elevated power (130Watt) processors are not supported. (On board VR are not important enough to supply that much power reliability. 80W max.) The reason only appears on the wrapping so not finding it is not amazing. If you verify the mother board part number sticker any board D41874-7xx is an "R" board and would sustain the 51xx to 54xx processors up to 80 watts as listed at the link above.
