ok heres the prob...i just installed a new proc (9850BE)
all i did was simple processor swap...nothing else...i plugged everything in and i get no post.
all the fans come on and everything is running but can get into bios just sits there at a blank screen. so far ive tried clearing the cmos and using each individual ram sticks. no luck...
getting very frustrating :banghead:

and i cant get the damn stock cooler that came with the new proc... to come off :mad:

how the hell do u loosen that damn thing! i want to try my old proc but cant get it off!

please shot some ideas at me!
thanks guys!

Updated your mobo bios? As far as the cooler goes, use a twisting motion first.

jbunch07 · Apr 25, 2008

im pretty sure it had the latest bios but i cant tell because i have no post at the moment my mobo isnt even beebing...and im not sure what u mean by that twisting motion....

Azazel · Apr 25, 2008

is it a a twist and click cooler?

farlex85 · Apr 25, 2008

Look at the instructions for the cooler, and remove it carefully. Its probably just a bios issue, and when you put in your old proc you'll be able to update that.

Undo the latch so there is no resistance. Grab the hsf, and rotate it clockwise/counterclockwise untill you feel it loosen up, then slowly rotate while gently pulling up. You may have to swap your other processor back in to do a bios update.

I just did a quick check on Gigabyte's website for your board and the support of CPU's and I don't see the 9850 (or BE for that matter) listed so could be that.

well i got the cooler off...
im going do be some damn pissed if this board doesnt support it...but the proc came out after the board so it might be that they havent updated it...im goin to put the x2 back in and see if i can boot ...brb

miniquake32 · Apr 25, 2008

looks like a bios prob to me

dark2099 · Apr 25, 2008

I would be pissed too if my board didn't support a CPU that came out after the board and the fact it supports the 9750.

erocker · Apr 25, 2008

Gigabyte 790fx was made for a Phenom! You probablly do need to update for the newest revisions though.

jbunch07 · Apr 25, 2008

ok it works with my X2 so i guess i need to look for a bio update?!

dark2099 · Apr 25, 2008

Just out of curiosity, what BIOS are you running currently?

jbunch07 · Apr 25, 2008

ok wow that was a close one!
it works now! im on it atm...
going to hooters and will be back back later for testing : )
thax everyone!

miniquake32 · Apr 26, 2008

hope u like the phenom!

spearman914 · Apr 26, 2008

Have you overtightened the screws of the cpu fan. Too tight may lead to the mobo not detecting the fan is on or too short may cause the same problem. Yea and like erocker said update your mobo bios since most phenoms need it.

UPDATE:

didn;t realize you fixed the problem.
