Intel Updates Core 2 Quad Q9550 to E-0 Stepping

We continue our Monday news list with another Intel story that brings to our attention information concerning the company and more specificly its 2.83GHz Core 2 Quad Q9550 chips that will move from the current C-1 to the newer E-0 stepping. The updated chips will start selling on August 22nd, featuring the following changes:

• New SSpec and MM numbers for the converting products
• CPUID will change from 0x10677 to 0x1067A
• Package change to Halide free package

Apart from that, the new stepping CPUs will not include any other changes. Of course, like most new stepping parts a BIOS update will be needed.

Go to C:\Windows\Logs\DISM

You will find the file there!

or copy paste the above in windows explorer(My computer)

Thank you Daksh,

I'm sorry, am somewhat puzzled. The only file in that directory is dism.log. Need heavy guidance.

How do I use the "source" option to specify the location you suggest ?
