I Have A Dell Optiplex GX110 computer and I am trying to upgrade the CPU from Pentium3 733mhz to Pentium3 1.4ghz(730 socket) when I install new CPU the computer turns on automatically with no output. The power light is orange. I reset nothing happens. I was told the CPU is compatible.I do not know if I need to update my Bios I`m currently at Bios 08.Can anyone help me out with this?
moved to correct forum as not an all other topics issue. bios update link. http://support.dell.com/support/dow...=-1&impid=-1&formatcnt=2&libid=1&fileid=65798 is there switches on the motherboard to change cpu speed? is also possible the board isd not capable of running that 1.4ghz cpu as needs a 14x multiplier. 14x100mhz fsb = 1.4ghz
