I had the old part number and ordered two 5405's. Bios was most recent. Installed them and upon booting it said "You need the 5000p chipset to support these procs, Halting..."
Got what I thought was the new mobo, and put the procs in, and it wouldn't even boot? It does boot with the old 5110 proc though. I think I have verified that the new mobo is correct. What's odd is that if they shipped the old version by accident, I assume it should still post and indicate it is halting like my original did? I think something else is wrong since it wont even post? jlc ________________________________ From: Greg Olson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 05, 2008 11:46 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: HP DL380 G5 Humm, time to call in a MB failure :) From: Joseph L.

The very first 380 G5's didnt support the QC's (5000 chipset versus 5000p I guess). You also need a recent bios version. I had the first, and even with the newest bios they didnt work :( Spare Part #: 436526-001 Non Quad Core Spare Part #: 407749-001 This is what Iam told by HP... jlc ________________________________ From: Barsodi.John [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 05, 2008 9:55 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: HP DL380 G5 In the G5’s the mobo’s are the same for QC and DC. From: Joseph L. Casale [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 05, 2008 8:31 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: HP DL380 G5 I am trying to deduce if a new mobo in a DL380 G5 supports Quad Cores, it is said it should be 436526-001. I don't have ilo access atm (not configured), I only have rdp access. Any ideas? I looked for an Intel Chipset identification util as the original mobo should be a 5000 series and this one should be a 5000p but it doesn't seem they make one for those series.
