    Hi GianniDPC
    This is the link Drivers and Downloads | Dell [United States]
    to the newest A07 Bios For the Dell Dimension 5000 your service tag has nothing to do with the Bios,
    The D5000A07.exe is for all of the Dell Dimension 5000 motherboards , Dell does not make a Bios for each service tag !
    This is the fixes & Enhancements
    The following changes have been made to BIOS rev A06 to create A07:
    1. Add support for newer processors
    2. Add help text during password change
    3. Improve boot sequence for CD ROMs
    4. Removed dialog pop-ups from flash program when -NoPause is used
    5. Improve S3 resume timing
    Good Luck
    EDIT
    For more info
    This link is to Intel for the CPU,s that the Intel 915 can work with .
    Intel® 915G Express Chipset it does Look like the 670 chip will work for your D5000 !
    After reading about this i have changed my mind i would get the Intel 670 and try it its
    up to you !
