[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1844717, member: 56379"] Not sure if you purchased your Mac Pro setup like this...or if you upgraded it yourself with the 2010 CPU tray. But do you still have the 2009 CPU tray? If so...maybe you can take the CPU's from the 2010 tray...pop them into the 2009 tray...and see if the CPU's work. This will help in determining if the issue is one of the CPU's or the tray. A 2nd idea. If your friend with the similar Mac Pro setup will let you...maybe you could swap your CPU's onto their CPU tray...then see if things work in their computer (your CPU's installed in their tray). Again...this will help you determine if the issue is your CPU's or your tray. Of course another option is to put your friends CPU's into your tray. Since you know your friends CPU's are good...if the combination of their CPU's in your tray...installed in your computer...will tell you if your tray is bad. HTH, - Nick [/QUOTE]
