Specs :
Motherboard : Foxconn H67A-S V2.0
RAM : Two 4GB DDR3L 1600
CPU : i3 2100 (old) | i5 3470 (new)
GPU : MSI GTX 650 Ti Twin Frozr III 2GB
PSU : Inter-Tech Energon EPS 550W
Storage : Two HDDs
So when I installed the new CPU, the fans spin but nothing shows up on screen, I tried resetting CMOS and it didn't work, I tried unplugging everything (All peripherals and cables) and I unplugged the graphics card as well and I unplugged one RAM stick and it still didn't work.
I reinstalled the old CPU and the PC worked fine.
The new CPU is used and the seller assured me that it works fine, I rechecked my motherboard's CPU support list and it says the CPU is supported, So I'm thinking that I probably need to update my BIOS but I don't want to do it without making sure that it is indeed the culprit, I never updated the BIOS before.
