So here's the deal. Basically I didn't think the BIOS update would be an issue so I went ahead and ordered the Intel T9600 as an upgrade for my VGN-AR750.
The factory processor was Intel T8100 (2.1gHz 3mb L2 800FSB)
The T9600 is (2.8gHz 6mb L2 1066 FSB)
I installed it and when I went to turn the computer on, nothing. blank screen. So I know I need a BIOS update. I can't find one anywhere! What can I do? Can my motherboard handle this upgrade? Anyone got any insight here? I had to put my factory CPU back in so I could still use the computer until I figure it out.
Thanks!
