With the launch of Core 2 Duo, eyes have suddenly turned to the motherboard manufacturers for a decent LGA775 motherboard. If you’re unlucky enough to already be on the LGA775 platform, there is a high chance that your motherboard doesn’t support Core 2 Duo. For others, all it will take is a BIOS update. But, as I mentioned in my Core 2 Duo article, some motherboards are being sold as Conroe compatible, but only with a BIOS update. If you get shipped a motherboard with an old BIOS on it, you probably won’t even be able to POST with a Core 2 Duo inside let alone update the BIOS.
