so i bought this board on ebay for cheap, it is supposed to be new.
the only socket 1150 cpu i have is a G3258.
this motherboard has stickers indicating its running bios, P1.50
but this cpu is not supported until bios p2.10

is the board not posting because of the old bios ver?
what would you recommend?
should i go out and buy a processor that is supported on the old bios?

or is there a way for me to buy a bios chip that has the newest bios on it? i think that would work better for me assuming its not extremely expensive.
