I have a AMD Phenom II X4 960T processor on an Asus M4A78LT-M-LE (BIOS 0803) motherboard.
CPU-Z screenshot:
I am trying to unlock all the 6 cores of this CPU by enabling advanced clock calibration in the BIOS. After the BIOS settings are saved the system restarts and a BSOD is shown when Windows 7 begins loading with the following error:
CI.dll
PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA
The BIOS also has options to turn a particular core On or Off. So I turned on the first 5 cores and turned off the 6th core. Everything works perfectly in this case and Windows 7 detects all 5 cores.
I tried turning off cores 2-5 and turning on core #6 but it causes the same BSOD.
Do I need to increase the voltage of the processor for the sixth core to work?
Is there anything else to be done to make all six core work?
