    HP ML150 G3 servers

    Have an issue with CPU support on this

    There are two mobos available
    399971-001 410426-001 for earlier dual core only CPU systems
    436356-001 436718-001 for later dual and quad core CPU systems

    I have a 399971-001
    This runs ok with 2 of Xeon 5050 (dual core) - 4 cores in total
    Also runs ok with 1 of Xeon E5335 (quad core) - 4 cores in total
    Will not run with 2 of E5335 - just hangs
    All voltage LEDs read green
    Have update to latest BIOS

    Before I go any further with testing
    1. What is the difference between the two mobos - pics would be nice
    Can't find datasheets
    2. Is this a BIOS issue - MCH is Intel 5000V?
    Supermicro et al offer the same chipset which runs 2 of quad core

    HP state on a community board, 436356-001 required to run 2 of quad core
    Are they being funny - 1 of quad core runs on 399971-001

    I may have a look at the BIOS to see if cores are being turned off etc
    Will check the VRD spec and the rest (in time).

    Any views and opinions appreciated
    Thx
