Hello! I recently aquired a small form factor emachines system and transplanted the motherboard to a somewhat custom case to use it as a htpc. I installed a phenon x4 9550 in it and removed the shitty small original cooler and proprietary backplate and mounted a lga775 cooler to cool the new chip. The board works fine with the chip installed, with the caveat that only a single core seems to be running on the processor. the boards model number is dao61/087l. any help would be greatly appreciated!

Jump to PostI didn't find anyone that got that to work. Try the AMD Athlon 64 X2 5050e next time. http://www.ebay.com/p/AMD-Athlon-X2-5050e-2-6-GHz-Dual-Core-ADH5050IADOBOX-Processor/74074946 pegs it at about 15 bucks.
