[SOLVED] Q6600 won't work on GA-G41MT-D3

[1988n2017]

I just got my new build together but for some reason I can't get the computer to boot up with the Q6600 in it. If I put the Q6600 into a different PC, it works perfectly. I put an E5800 into my G41MT-D3 and it works perfectly. I just can't get the two to work together, despite the fact that they're supposed to be compatible and there's tons of other people running a Q6600 on a G41MT-D3.

Can anyone help me out here? I really don't want to have to go buy another CPU, but this E5800 is nowhere near enough.

With the E5800 installed, did you update the BIOS to the latest version before the CPU swap?

Looks like there has only ever been one BIOS, so that can't be the problem ...

Not entirely sure what the issue was, but I switched the PSU cable and it works fine now. The weird thing is that both cables are rated the same... I don't care, it works now so that's all I need.
