Hi,

 

Search of Dell support I found this about the Optiplex 745 Dell™ OptiPlex™ 745 Boot Error: "System does not support the installed processor"

 

I know it not your systems but seeing that both Bios updates you did pertain to "New Intel Processor Microcode Updates" I would guess that the new Bios does have a bug. I would install the previous bios and see if that fixes the problem.

 

Newer is not always Better!!!!!

 

If its not broke don't fit it!!!!!!

 

A couple of good sayings.

I received that message when I flashed one of the 755's to A07.  The message flashed on the screen so fast, I restarted the computer to see it again, but it didn't display it anymore...
