What should I do to bios before installing Core2 Quad?

What should I do to bios before installing Core2 Quad?
« on: October 18, 2012, 11:59:27 pm »
Currently have an E8400 Core2 Duo processor OC'd to 4 gig in a GA-P35-DS3L board. Going to put in a Q9550 quad. Will the bios auto-adjust for the quad or do I need to make some changes first?

Thanks for all input.

As long as your bios is up to date and supports it you will be fine after you install it just load defaults and start up then you can restart after windows loads and go into bios and make any changes you want for overclocking and memory and so on.
