Intel DQ965GF — Need latest BIOS for Core 2 Quad upgrade

[Artem2009-16]

Hello everyone,




I’m currently working with an Intel DQ965GF motherboard and would like to upgrade the CPU.

However, I can’t find the latest BIOS version or a working download link for it — the official Intel website no longer provides this file.




Could someone please share a copy of the latest BIOS update (preferably the final release version)?




My goal is to upgrade the processor from a Core 2 Duo E6700 to a Core 2 Quad Q6700, so I’d like to make sure the BIOS fully supports it.




Thank you very much in advance for your help!

I found this if it helps Intel DQ965GF (Guardfish) - The Retro Web Bios version 6100
Check manufacturers other than intel that used this board , they may still have the bios

Found this one CO96510J.86A.6100.BI.ZIP, you need to make a bootable DOS USB
6100.EB looks like it's a Windows flasher, you may need to run it in older OS (XP/Vista/7)
Attached both
Edit: removed EB, possible virus, sorry I didn't check

The last file (EB.zip) seems to have a virus Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml Severe

Sorry didn't check, uploaded it from my phone
Removed attachment in case, thanks for letting me know

Don't know if you can trust Softpedia https://drivers.softpedia.com/get/BI...shtml#download
But the exe is there 6100.EB

The link to the softpedia file seems to be ok and the file itself seems to be fine as well
