Ok. First off this is the motherboard I'm using. http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A99X_EVO/
I recently bought a fx-8350. I put it in, tried booting computer up and it wouldn't beep, wouldn't load windows, just fans running. I moved my ram to the first slot, nothing. Removed the video card. no beeps. So desperate thinking I fried my computer I reinstall my old CPU and PRESTO! The thing boots.
I cleared the "JMPR" on my mobo, even removed CMOS battery while I was dusting out the computer but was wondering if I anything else could be the problem?
All cables were in place correctly too.
O yeah. I'm running windows 7, 64-bit
Edit: Don't know if it would matter but I was running a Quad-core phenom in the machine before trying the switch.
