hello guys,
My Question: Is it only my personal fail or my new CPU and my old MoBo arent compatible (i read they are compatible on ASUS website)
My Story which is describing my problem:i want to ask you all, who knows more about PCs than me :) i have bought "new" CPU AMD FX 4300 after few days, and i cant make it working... I am scary that i failed and destroyed some hardware in my case cause my PC is crashing now always when Windows (i have Windows 7 HP) are booting, after BIOS screen my PC starts to boot Windows but when it should show me blue screen with "welcome!" my PC always turns off and i must restart him, but it always does the same.. I tried reinstall windows but installation never ends cause PC crashes before it can end... Please help me if someone knows what to do :)
THX for all useful answers and gl
HTTT

P.S. maybe i just need to set something in BIOS or set jumpers on MoBo on right position, but i dont know :-/


EDIT: if you want know more write it, i will give more informations :)
 
Solution
Fx4300 is supported but you need to be at bios level 702 at minimum.
The current bios level is 1201: https://www.asus.com/us/Motherboards/M5A78LM_LX3/HelpDesk_Download/
