So I just finished changing my CPU from i3 4130 to i5 4570 and it doesn't turn on anymore after I turned it off to close the case. It worked before and I tested GTA V with no problems and after the test I turned it off. Next thing I knew the PC won't turn up after a few tries and I have no idea what I have done.

Wish it was like that, tried different sockets and it doesn't work. Everything inside seems to be normal. I don't know how it even works before and after I shut it down it can't be turned up anymore.

If you still have your old cpu I suggest you try to put it back in and see if it boots.

Haven't tested it using my old CPU because truth be told I don't have much time right now to have the hassle to change cpu's again because the fan broke one of my nails when I'm trying to lock the thing.
About the BIOS thing I'm sure it's BIOS is compatible enough to make it run Windows and benchmark some games smoothly before I shut down to close the PC case.
