Have an Gigabyte GA-G31M-SL2 LGA775 mobo in a secondary PC. Replaced an old celeron for a Xeon E5430 in it. On the old hard drive it booted win 7 with no problems. Formated the hard disk and installed a fresh win 10 on the drive with my main rig, moved the hard drive back expecting to boot, but it won't, swapped the cleron and it works. Will the microcodes and a flashed bios help?
