but I still cant' get the new CPU to work
Greetings Gammio, first off let's try to slow things down here a little bit, relax, take a nice deep breath and I'll see if I can't explain this to you, as several people here have already.
I'm happy for you with buying yourself a new processor, it's always nice when putting a little bit more "hustle behind the muscle" when it comes to processing power. Now as happy as things are about the new processor, we need to face some facts here.
Now I see you've dabbled with trying to go into your BIOS and doing things as so that your processor might work, which is good and will come into play later. Now understand that your motherboards BIOS is the brains of the whole operation, when it comes to what your motherboard can and can not do. Before that new processor of yours can work, we need to school your BIOS a little bit and teach it some things. The only way for this to happen is
first, you will need to
update your motherboards BIOS. This isn't something that is done by just going into BIOS and throwing some switches or adjusting settings, this is done by going to your motherboards company, the one that built it, you need to go to their web site and look up your motherboard, normally done by selecting it's model number. After your motherboard has been located on the web site, next your going to have to look for it's "support & downloads" section. After your into that section, you will then want to look for things titled "BIOS update" or look for BIOS version numbers that are higher than the one your currently using now. After selecting an option, you will then need to read their instructions on how to best go about installing the BIOS update into your BIOS chip on your motherboard. Most company's now a day's have dropped the need like back in the day, when one had to install BIOS updates via something like a 3.5 inch diskette. Most company's now offer such things like installing BIOS updates directly through Windows. That would be the best option for you to select, that being to install the update by using Windows.
After the update has been downloaded, most of the time company's set this kind of file up to be "auto launching" or at best it will say something like "BIOS update ready for install, click okay to proceed"! If by auto launch of manual selection, once this process starts, it's very important to not disturb it at all.
Do nothing on your computer while this file is being installed, no web browsing, no game playing, no typing up a new word document, nothing, wait until the install process has completed all the way. Normally with auto launching BIOS installs the installer when completed will say that in 10 seconds it will restart your computer as to finish the BIOS update install. Or if you go about this manually, after the BIOS update installer finishes, it will ask you to please restart your computer, do so at that time and do nothing else.
After your computer starts it's restart, you can then proceed to go into BIOS, normally via the (F2) button and see if the new update took. Look for version numbers, if the version number is now higher than your original one, than congratulations, the update took. Then proceed to get out of the BIOS, no need to tinker with anything in there now, just back out and let the whole boot up process take place. After Windows fully boots and everything appears normal, then select to power down your computer, turn the whole thing off! After the computer is fully shut off, go behind your computer and remove it's power cord from the power supply, just unplug it and let it rest on the floor.
Next open up you computer case as so to gain access to it's innards, find where the processor is, which by now you already know, but find it and carefully go about removing the
old processor from your system and then go about installing the
new processor into the host bridge of the motherboard. Once the new processor is properly seated and locked into place on the motherboard, back out, and replace the case cover of your computer. Once the case cover is back on, go behind your computer again and pick up the power cord off the floor and plug it back into the power supply. Then get back in your chair in front of the computer and turn it on! Once your system starts to come to life, when you get to the point that the system is asking you if you would like to go into BIOS, hit (F2) or the appropriate button to do so. Once inside BIOS, that's when you can go about throwing switches and selecting new settings to try and maximize your new processor. Once you feel secure with your new settings, back out of BIOS remembering to hit (F10) to save your new settings upon exit. Now the computer should restart, it then should go past the BIOS screen and then proceed to launch straight into Windows. If you get to this point, your job is done, you have successfully updated your motherboards BIOS and you successfully went about installing your new processor.
Hope this information helps!
Good luck!
