Installed new cpu, seems to be working, but not sure

[Jojo58]

I just replaced my old i3 with a new i7, and my pc seems to be working but i'm not completely sure... When i started my pc after the installation it suddenly shut down during booting, and there was a crack noise. It restarted itself did that another time, and at the 3rd time my bios informed me that i had installed a new cpu and i needed to change settings. So i checked that all the settings were good, and restarted. Windows loaded without problems and it worked for a couple of seconds before a blue screen came up. After that it restarted and everything worked normally. I'm still not entirely sure though...

Is BIOS 0330, or higher on this? Because it needs it to support that CPU

@paulNZ I have a bios of version 2.16.1240 by American Megatrends. Also a new development, i'm constantly hearing a small thumping noise, sounds like the HDD, but can't be sure.

The bios update version isnt that long. It's only 4 numbers
