Last response: in CPUs
Greetings, im having quite a trouble right now, i swapped my intel G620 for a 2500, because i got it dirt cheap, and well, when i booted the system, my radeon HD 6750 didn't gave any video, i didn't pay importance to that yet, just swapped the vga cable to the onboard video, i checked temps, ran stress tests and everything was allright with the cpu, and when i started looking why the gpu wasn't giving any signal, i checked the bios and it said that there was no card on the pciex16 slot, then i started to worry.
So far, i reseated the card, checked the power connector, removed the mobo battery for a while, im sure that im missing a detail here, my system is this:
CPU: Intel 2500 (i have the spare g620 also)
motherboard: intel dh61ww
GPU: Radeon HD6750 (Quite old, i know)
HD: A 500GB western digital and a 500GB seagate (dont remember which i boot lol)
PSU: Evga 500W
Every help is apreciated.

As I said above, it must be faulty graphics card. Sorry, OP.The graphics card worked again when i swapped the old cpu (G620), i dont know why with the other cpu (2500) didn't recognize the gpu, any ideas?
So, do you mean that your HD 6750 works with only with your old processor and not with the new one, OP?

Yes, just like that.

My first suggestion would be to update to the latest bios version. Your new CPU may not be supported with your current bios version.
If that does not solve you problem It is generally recommended to reinstall your operating system and all drivers when changing out a CPU. Not doing so can cause conflicts that have all sorts of unattended consequences.

Just updated the bios, still, video card is not recognized in bios, im starting to believe that i have a faulty chip here.That is always a possibility but generally CPUs are one of the most reliable part of a PC with a very low DOA rate. What is your motherboard model?
Edit -nvm I somehow missed it in the OP
Have you tried starting in safe mode so that it uses generic drivers to see if it may be a driver or firmware issue?

Did you try changing the initial display output to PCI 1 (if x16 slot) in BIOS?Its set there, the bios lists all the pci and pcie ports, and lists what you're using on them, thats why im saying that its not recognized even by the bios. With the other cpu (the G620) it appears like its ocupied.

Okay, I was worried you wouldn't catch that in the instructions. I would continue to follow the BIOS update path (Intel ME update, 0099, 0120) but I would also update your chipset driver.In your BIOS and/or Windows System Information, is your 2500 being reported correctly?
Yes, its reported correctly. Im currently installing the 0099 bios, if that dont work i'll try the 0120 bios.

Good and bad news, i just updated the bios to the latest 0120 version, the good news, the user interface is quite nice now, the bad news, still no signs of life on the pciex16 port. I'll try with another motherboard later and another vga later, so far, another cpu (intel g620) works. Im kinda disapointing myself for this purchase.

Greetings, a little update here. I just have tested the cpu in another motherboard, i had the same results, cpu working but not no signs of life on the pciex16 slot.
All that i have left is to test with another video card, to discard the minium possibility of incompatibility between those parts. Im trying to undestand a logical reason of why a cpu could work this way, cpu working 100% but not comunicating with the pciex16 slot.

I agree. My next suggestion requires some dried chicken bones, fresh gecko eyeballs, and some Oreos...I have those things, everything except oreos, hard to find nowadays.
You can substitute Cocoa Puffs, but then you'll need some un-homogenized organic whole milk. You'll want to lay down some plastic sheeting under your PC though...

Greetings, a little update here, i already tried with another video card, a gtx 750, and another psu, a generic one, dont remember the brand really, but i got the same results, no video output on the dedicated videeo graphics card, and pci-e x16 slot not populated on the bios. Im sending the cpu back, i hope that a i can get a working one, or my money back.

When you updated your BIOS, how did you do it, and which version did you just flash it to?
