Intel Turbo Boost?

[Gun-dam]

I have Intel i5 750 2.66Ghz with EVGA P55V motherboard. I checked and as far as I can tell both of these are compatible with Intel turbo boost technologies, but when I install I get an error message saying a compatible CPU is not detected.

Any ideas?

Use CPU-Z and load the cores.

If the processor runs above 2.66GHZ then Turbo Boost is activated.

Also, just check in your BIOS that Turbo Boost is indeed enabled!

Is it running the latest BIOS?

When you install what?

The intel turbo boost drivers.

I enabled the settings in my bios, turbo boost drivers installed. Thanks guys.

As far as I'm aware, there is no driver for Turbo Boost. After some searching I can only find references to some software which lets you see what Turbo Boost is doing. As long as it's enabled in BIOS it should be fine, as CAT-THE-FIFTH said, you can just check it's working with CPU-Z or something.

My new Vostro V130 has a Turbo boost widget thingy which lets me see the state of the errr boost
