According to HP this unit does not accept the stated processor. This is the list:

Socket type: 775

Motherboard supports the following processor upgrades:

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6xx0 with Quad Core technology up to Q6600 (Kentsfield)

Core 2 Duo E6x00 up to E6850 or E6700 (Conroe)

Core 2 Duo E4x00 up to E4400 (Conroe)

You can try a bios upgrade but there will be no support for processors not specified by HP

You can obtain all the info from hp site:

Hope that helps.
