Cpu

[Stevontoast]

Not booting when I put it in my computer
It's socket 775
Should work
But it doesn't
I put my old one back in and it worked
What could be wrong with my new CPU?
Thermal paste can't be the problem

You may have to update your BIOS...

Thought I'd jam a picture showing that my BIOS is out dated
BIOS are free to download but I don't know where to find mine
Any help?
I need it to install my new CPU...

You'll find one in the drivers-section of your motherboard manufacturer. I might be wrong but I'm not.. hopefully.

I checked my motherboard
It doesn't exist
Well its not on any lists...
I think I installed something that will allow my BIOS to detect dual cores so I'll give it a bash tomorrow once i get home
I'll update then!
