Hello to all, I recently changed my CPU to an AMD Athlon X4 860K, here are the rest of my specs
http://pcpartpicker.com/user/llevene/saved/CFKLrH
The PC itself turns on and everything seems to be working except for the monitor responding. The minuet I put the old chip back (an a4 6320) it works fine. I really need help with this and ive tried everything and nothing has worked. I am pretty sure this motherboard is compatible because other people have suggested using this cpu and mobo together before and there were no accounts of it being incompatible.
Any help much appreciated thanks in advance!
 
Solution
I would put your old cpu in and then update your bios to the latest from ecs. According to cpu-upgrade.com your motherboard does support the 860k but it does not say what bios version was used.

i just tried it and it worked! thanks you're amazing!! i thought that i had already got the latest bios installed because i had updated the bios like a month or two ago and the one i just download now was the same version i installed from a month ago but maybe i didn't install it right the first time or something. anyway thanks for the help i wouldn't have thought of that i had literally tried everything else.
