Hello,
Recenty we've try to upgrade with two L5420 processor, but system won't start with CPU IERR. Then I've update BIOS to the latest version (2.7.0).
System started, but then I've got "Unsupported CPU combination System halted!" error.
Also I've try one processor at time, got same error (combination yeah).
