I have to figure out what problem and any miss step.
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because of the firmware never upgrade before that why need to step by step. Next
I have to reset my PRAM, 4,1 support 1066MHz, after flash the firmware should be can support 1333MHz, which my hardware \/ ram is 1333MHz also. Haha .. don’t know is it any different withing this 2, just want to figure out the solution.

\"\"<\/a>
\"\"<\/a>
This old processor and ram  .. will replace 2.66 to 3.46,  8gb ram to 32gb ram
\"\"<\/a>
After clean up and upgrade .. it look like new to me now.
\"\"<\/a>
Since like the result same as my expectation<\/em>.
