Before i explain the issue, i want to say I've been working with computers for a long time, building them, repairing them and upgrading them, i have tried everything with this and double checked everything, taken everything out and rebuild it eliminating every component.
Recently bought an i5-2500 for €20 from Cex, placed it into my machine and now everytime i boot, i get a black screen, no bios no nothing, machine turns on fine, all fans run and spin, everything, board supports it too from what ive read, bios is updated fully. Its rare i need to come to a forum but you guys are my only hope<3
Its a HP machine cause i sold my main PC till i can afford another.
I can swap out my CPU back to my old pentium g620 and it works fine which leads me to believe its the i5 being faulty.
Specs: (hp p6 2010-uk PC but ive replaced a lot, except motherboard)
Motherboard: H-Cupertino2-H61-uA (Cupertino 2) bios rev - 7.16A
PSU(500w chieftec)
Ram - 1x4GB corsair
Cpu - i5 2500 (originally pentium G620)
Graphics card: AMD HD6870
Ive cleared bios and everything, used jumpers and left the battery out... im going insane, please help.
