Motherboard BIOS updated? If not, that's your problem. Just buy a cheap Athlon ii (Non FM series), download the bios on a USB stick and update it through the Gigabyte bios. Be cautious though, if you were to have a power outage while the bios is updating, your motherboard will have it. But since pretty much all Gigabyte motherboards have the useful dual-bios, there's less of a chance of bricking it, so you can flash back to the old bios if one were to fail.
