I am trying to upgrade my porcessor and bought a (AMD-Athlon-II-X-3-435-Triple-Core-2-9GHz-AM3-Processor-ADX435WFK32GI) . I bought the processor and installed it and get no video. No boot to bios or nothing at all. All the blue cpu lights light up. No beeps, fans all run, everything starts as normal except no video, no post, monitor stays asleep. My motherboard is a MSI-970A-G46. I have a AMD Radeon HD 5450 pci-e video card installed. And 16gb ram. This is the cpu I have installed right now- AMD Sempron (tm) 145 Processor 2.80 GHZ and it runs fine as soon as I put it back in.
I bought the cpu because according to this site (http://www.cpu-upgrade.com/mb-MSI/970A-G46.html) it was listed as one that would work.
Things I have tried--Cleared Cmos -removed everything except video card- tried different ram(ripjawddr3 1600)- tried with one stick and two sticks of ram.
I also have the latest bios version 2.80. Everything works fine with the single core 2.80 Processor.
Thank you for any advice you can give
