Anyone know if the PowerEdge T410 with the 1.12.0 BIOS is compatible with Xeon X5680's? The release notes indicate the system is compatible with 5600 series processors but I am unable to get the server to actually boot with them installed.
What I have tried:
Reset BIOS - NO-GO-
Reflashed BIOS to 1.12.0 - NO-GO-
Removed all other processors and RAM leaving only bank 1 - NO-GO-
Installed a single (didn't have another) "known-good" X5650 6-Core 130watt processor - ALL-GOOD-
I am now under the impression that BIOS 1.12.0 is NOT compatible with X5680 processors.
Can someone assist and verify this for me? My Google-Fu is not returning any results...
Thanks in advance for your time...
