Hello, i have been trying to get my new Intel E7500 working for about 2 hours now with still no luck, when i boot up my pc the screen is just blank and doesnt recognise that there is a connection, Any ideas why would be lovely. my graphics card is a nvidia Gts 450
 
Solution
So you selected the GM45 not the CM45, they are 2 different boards.

You need to be sure that you have the GM45 otherwise your new cpu won't even work.
Download cpu-z and see what it says about your mobo and bios info.

The chipset has to be the 945G not the 945GC, cpu-z will also tell you this.
