RESOLVED: WTBorrow First run Haswell Pentium/Celeron

[helsyeah]

Hey all,

I picked up a used X10SLL-F (LGA1150) that has an older bios that doesnt recognize my CPU (Pentium G3260T).

I'm reaching out to Supermicro to get an evaluation key for out-of-band bios updates so I can update the bios via IPMI/SUM.

BUT, I'm not sure I'll have any luck with getting the evaluation key, so I'm also looking to borrow a first-run Haswell Pentium/Celeron/i3 that will let me update the bios.

Specific models that should work:

• i3-4130
• i3-4330
• i3-4340
• i3-4360
• Celeron G1820
• Celeron G1820T
• Celeron G1830
• Pentium G3220
• Pentium G3220T
• Pentium G3420
• Pentium G3420T
• Pentium G3430

Let me know what you have, I'm happy to pay shipping back and forth.

Hi, this is not exactly what you are looking for, but I have an EEPROM programmer that likely can reprogram your BIOS chip directly. I would just need you to verify that A) it's removable and B) what the part number on it is. Alternatively, you could buy a second one from digikey and have it shipped to me to be programmed. Let me know if you would be interested in something like this.

Thank you for the offer but I was able to get past the issue. Thanks!
