Ey, thank you for reaching out to this post.
So I've been trying to reuse my old combo with (B150M bazooka plus) with the CPU (i5 6400k)
PSU (Good 650W from Nox) & 2x8gb (Ripjaws Corsair)
It was all disconnected so I just connect it , set it up & all fine, using HDMI could properly go trough few games to test the integrated graphics and it was totally fine.

Problems appeared when I tried on swapping CPU to a i7 6700k, saw it was compatible & just tried it ( Without any driver update nor anything) this ended up on a red light missing CPU on mobo so I just said.. "fk it" it's alright just with the i5 for few days..

But coming back to the i5 made it went so crazy & not really booting at all.
~ CPU red light flashes 1 second, then dram flashes for about 4 seconds ~

What I tried?
Resetting CMOS for almost 20 different ways, swapping ram sticks or trying with 1, tried diff PSU, cleaning and connecting again all cables but nothing... seems like I cannot revert it

As I said I made it work totally fine, but this CPU swap made it crazy & don't know what to do anymore

If you need any more details I'll be glad to give them and thank you for any help you can give me <3
 
What do the pins on motherboard look like? Any bent or have thermal paste on it?
Thanks you for your answer!
Wdym? Not on CPU socket or any pin around has any thermal paste on it

Just re checked now since 2 days ago.. seems like red light has another pattern

DRAM stay ON and turn off for less than 1 second on that interval CPU flashes and goes on loop like this
What is going on x.x
 
Okay back on track seems like I moved a little pin inside micro but I moved back so carefully & now with just 1 stick of ram on 4th goes back to the problem commented firstly but adding more does what I said on last post ><
Any help is well welcome
<3
