Question Updating BIOS

Hello everyone,

I have a Gigabyte M61P-S3 board. I bought a Athlon 64 x2 6000, 3.1 GHz to replace my Athlon 3800. I did a BIOS update, swapped processors out, rebooted and I get no POST at all. Just fans. No beep code. nothing.

I put the Athlon 3800 back in and it works fine. My question... Is there something else that I have to do in BIOS so the new processor will boot or does it sound like a dead processor?

Another thing. I did try to use the processor before I did the BIOS update and it would boot but system would shutdown after a few minutes.

Like I said, that was before. Now nothing but fans. Any thoughts on this?

Re: Updating BIOS

in the previous motherboard bios you can change the bios labelling but now you cant do it, and if you want to change the processor just attach new processor, it will autodetect
