I tried to upgrade the i5 3470s cpu on my old HP Compaq Elite 8300 USDT to the i7 3770s. The motherboard is LGA1155.
However it never boots with red LED blinking 8 times with beeps. The power supply is the standard 135w (only when I have the discrete graphic card it requires more wattage I read).
BIOS is latest from April 2019. The hp troubleshooting guide says 8 beeps means Video card error which I don't have one on this.
If I remove the memory it blinks 5 times with beeps which as per the troubleshooting guide.
I am just wondering if the cpu not compatible for whatever or the cpu not working? The cpu fan runs and also I can see it heats up as I turn on.
Any help please to troubleshoot?
Thanka,
Manoj
