Hello,
So a few days ago I ordered a new processor: AMD Athlon x4 860k and when I tried putting it in, my pc would give 3 beeps (1 long and 2 short ones) and no display on the monitor. The fans and everything else is working yet I still don't get display on my monitor.
My old processor: amd a6-6400k apu with radeon(tm) hd graphics
When I put my old processor back in, my pc works perfectly fine again; no beeps and display is fine.
Things I've tried:
- Try different cpu fans
- Remove the cmos battery (There is no jumper or cmos reset button on my motherboard)
- Cleaning the motherboard and ram sticks (Some people on the internet said it could have something to do with the ram, but they work fine for me)
- New thermal paste
- Removing all the cables and putting them back in
- Switch back and forth from the old to the new processor a lot of times but still no display/boot with the new processor
Specs:
- Motherboard: MSI A68HM Grenade (Searched on google and yes, the processor should be compatible with this motherboard)
- Old processor: AMD A6-6400K apu with radeon(tm) hd graphics
- New processor: AMD Athlon x4 860k
Thanks for reading this far. If you have any ideas or suggestions please let me know, anything is much appreciated.
