Works w a p8200 (core 2 duo 2.4). Boots to bios w q9000 quad core but never gets past post. Tried twice. Didnt seem to get too hot. Tried to get to boot menu. No go. Tqhoang... if u can work ur magic once again... either way. Not sure if it can be done. Just might need to buy a faster dual core
1st off Intel does not make a P8200 (Do you mean a P8600?). 2nd off is this a Dell Studio 14Z? (Please me more descriptive). 3rd off you need to do your research and see what processors will work with your chipset before you ever go out and go processor shopping. Just because the socket fits doesn't mean it is going to work in your computer.
