I checked the old cpu and yes it will boot just fine. After swapping back to the new cpu it still does not boot. I do believe I am properly applying the thermal paste. I use about a pea size glob in the middle of the cpu with the stock Ryzen cooler.

I am trying to upgrade my cpu from a AMD 5 2600 to a AMD 5 5600. But I am running into some problems. Currently the system won't even post and the bios light is lit on the motherboard.

Here is my parts build . https://pcpartpicker.com/list/j2fPr6 Both of my sticks of same are from the same pack. I was having problems uninstalling Kaspersky as well as updating Windows 10. The latter I needed to do in order to update AMD chipset driver. It was annoying me so I decided to...

I am wanting to get into pc gaming but need some help choosing a network solution to get a reasonably fast and reliable internet connection. The problem with my house is that it was built in 1948 and is made of wire mesh and spray concrete. When I say the house is made of wire mesh and concrete...

Thank you for the advise turns out the date and time was set for January of 2018 and fixing that solved my problem.

I downloaded the latest lan driver to a usb and restarted the computer but am still having the same problem. The OS is Windows 10 Home and the motherboard is a MSI B450 Tomahawk.

I just built my first computer and so far everything has been going relatively smoothly. After I installed the drivers and updated the bios I then tried to update Windows 10 but Windows says it can not connect to the internet. So I tried Microsoft Edge and that works I can use Bing just fine...
