Hey guys! I just changed my CPU from a Celeron 1005M to a Pentium 2020M. Now when I turn on my PC, the screen stays black even though the cooler is working fine. My computer is a Toshiba Satellite C50 A with 14GB RAM. Anyone else having this problem? Please help me! 😟😟😟😟

Hi there! Before you start changing your computer's parts like the CPU, did you actually update the BIOS first so it works with the new chip?
