When I have the 4 pin power connector plugged in my pc turns on for a few seconds then turns off. When I have the cable unplugged it turns on and the fans spin but I see nothing on my monitor.
 
Solution
If you know someone with a Skylake chip, or could get one somehow, you could use that to update the BIOS, but other than that, yeah, you'd need to return the board and get a 200 series board (if you want to use that CPU).

From reading this I'd assume you're having a major overheating problem, maybe try giving more details? Tell me more in depth of the problem because I wouldn't want to give a very vague answer.

I'm upgrading form an old system. Everything is new except for the case hard drive and PSU. The MOBO is a H110m-a CPU is an i5-7500 the ram is crucial 2x4GB DDR4 2133 GPU is an EVGA 3GB 1060 the old PSU is a Thunder V2 535w. I've just put everything together and it seems to be turning on but after about 5 seconds it turns off again. If this helps when i have the 4 pin connector unplugged from the ATX 12v connector the PC stays on but I get no display on my monitor.

Thank for the reply! I'm new to building PC's and such. Can I update the BIOS manually or will I have to return the parts?
