FRUs of penryn compatibile t61 boards

#1 Post by ziemeck » Wed Nov 16, 2016 4:34 pm

I haven't found at this board any list of FRUs of penryn compatibile t61 boards. How do I know my board can support penryn? Does the production date decide or all that is necessary is just BIOS mod on any t61 board?

Any T61 motherboard will be Penryn-capable after applying Middleton's BIOS.
Any T61 mobo with a P/N starting with 42W78xx is native-Penryn capable, even without M's BIOS.
There are a few more, but this should do.
