Hello all,
So to start things off I have made a Frankenstein out of my dad's 2011 OEM HP PC, it is to the point where the only parts that was part of the original PC is the cpu, RAM, and HDD drive. I wanted to replace cpu just to get a little more power for gaming.
However once I placed the new cpu in and started, the motherboard noticed a change in cpu and told me to go to the bios. So i did and i saw that the motherboard recognized the cpu and then checked the temps and saw ok signals within the 30 degrees areas.
To my fault, i thought that was all i needed to do and i was good to go. That obviously wasn't the case since when i exited the bios and went to bootup i saw good signs when the windows bootup screen was showing. Then all of a sudden it would restart. And it is still doing this. I have yet to see the sign in screen which makes me more anxious by the day. I have tried to reinstall windows but still no luck.I have attempted to have windows repair itself but it cannot find a problem. I have no clue what to do. Please if there is anything i can do to fix this please let me know. Anything will help. Thanks!
