EDIT: SOLVED
Turned out to be the CPU B Tray not enough tightened




Help

Partial Success upgrading dual 4.1 with stocks CPU to 3.46ghz ones...

ALL GOOD With the processors... delided by myself with the vice method, no problems!

Installed both, and after the startup with side cover removed i noticed a Constant red light lit.

Initialized the system, went to system prefs and noticed that one of the memory was not being recognized.

before upgrading i had all my 4x8gb (total 32gb) memory and slots working.

- already changed the memory on the slot and still the same problem - so it's not the memory ram, it's the slot.

I had the same problem when I did the upgrade because one of the cpu heat sinks wasn’t tight enough. But I didn’t remove the heat sinks, so I was working very hard to make sure they weren’t too loose.
