Hi, Is there an old CPU available?

I believe there is a tool in BIOS titled EZFlash 2 which you would use to update the BIOS.

I think that with F7 in BIOS you will enter Advanced Mode then go to last Tab in BIOS and there should be EZ-Flash.Run it Select USB drive and BIOS file and wait for it to finish Update.After Update is done restart PC boot into BIOS then reset Settings to Default and turn OFF PC.Unplag all cables discharge Motherboard by holding Power On button on Case for 10-15 sec and then swap CPU. Be gentle with cooler so you dont break mounting pins and same with CPU.Clean Old Thermal Paste, Put new one or if you gonna replace cooler with one you get with i7 there should be Paset On it.Mount it all together and job done.Plug all cables back in Boot into BIOS and do one more BIOS reset to Default Settings.Reset and Have a nice time with new CPU.

Update: Download Lates BIOS that is P8H61 BIOS 4306 so it has all you need,so you dont have to Update later.

thanks alot mate , this seems alot easer than i thought , i will do it in the morning

though there is one thing left in my mind ,

" Boot into BIOS and do one more BIOS reset to Default Settings.Reset and Have a nice time with new CPU"

why do i have to do one more bios and reset to default , if i just finished updating at the first step ?

and thanks

After you Update BIOS reset Settings so it can set all stock one for new CPU so that there wont be any wrong voltages or other settings what can harm your performance in some cases happens that Voltages get set to High without knowing so you will get abnormal temps or you can damage parts.BIOS reset to Default is easy and fast you dont have to worry about it ,best way to keep BIOS on safe side.
