I was using a c2d e4500 on my dp35dpm and all was fine. then i bought a used q9400 from pakgamers forum and replaced my CPU. all was fine except the bios was not showing the processor model correctly neither it was showing its speed. In windows dxdiag was showing me correct model speed, cache etc. however the temperature in speed fan software at idle 46-56 C my room temperature was around 28 C at that day. I did not applied new thermal paste on that processor so that could be possible reason for the higher temperature or may be the old bios as i never updated it since i bought it in 2007.

So i decided to upgrade the bios. I downloaded the express bios update exe file from

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&DwnldID=17930&ProdId=2782&lang=eng

and start that application in windows 7 32 bit. the application asked me to reboot and wait for 3 mints. but after restart my computer never boot again. there was a static " _ " mark on top left corner of screen and nothing was progressing after displaying that sign. after searching on Google i found a method to recover my bios by writing .bio file on cd and booting from that. but it didn't work either. as i didn't had any warranty left. so i took my PC dubai plazza at umer electronics as they are famous for MB repairing in RWP / ISB. but they told me that they don't have bios software file so they are unable to install a fresh bios software on my motherboard. now please tell me what is actually going on. and from where i can find that bios software binary file.

Updating Bios on Intel Motherboards is a real headache ..!

Actually, I was also looking to update the bios of my Intel DP45SG motherboard but encountered alot of consequences so I postponed it :D ... as my motherboard was not in warranty !

    I have a PS5 but I am not satisfied with the experience. I am currently saving for a 4080 64 GB rig soon. Bit will wait for Pro if performance improves. This gen has been so bad I don't plan on buying consoles anymore for AAA gaming.

    Consoles were my main platform ever since Atari 2500. But now I think it's not worth it as PC especially with DLSS deliver far smoother performance. AW2 on console didn't even had ray tracing and ran below 30fps. Similar issues plagues DD2 on consoled.

    Both PS and Xbox have been a flop this gen as they can barely maintain 30 fps in a lot of AAA games th.

    As per WCCF Tech review, Xbox Series X doesn't even maintain a consistent FPS and sometimes drops into the mid-20fps range. That's unacceptable, tbh.

    Still, I wonder why the PC Gamer rated it worse than Gollum. 🤔

    Score 1 for game pass. I wouldn't pay full price for this at retail either.

    Just downloaded my first legit digital PC game on GoG at a discount of $8: Two Point Hospital. The same team behind Theme Hospital Two Point Studios now part of Sega. And I am having more fun than most recent AAA games except of course BG3.

    gottdamnnn HB2 looks amazing. UE5 finally living up to its potential.

    Still, I don't like either Sony or Microsoft as they are focusing more on corporate greed than delighting customers. PC gaming is best of gaming and worth every penny.

    PC Gamer score of 58/100 for Hellblade 2??? Is it really worse than Gollum that was 64/100? Microsoft games can't even come close to high scores of Sony exclusives apparently.

    About the Microsoft (and Sony) debate, I feel both have become too greedy and losing their minds over corporate greed. Personally, I will never buy any console next gen and switch to PC gaming where democracy reins.

    did you try setting up Google Payments? For UBL you may have to get it enabled for internet transactions, Naya should work without it!
