Hello! You're dealing with a few tricky issues here. It sounds like you've set up your system correctly but encountered some unexpected behavior after updating the BIOS. The fact that you bent a few pins on the CPU socket suggests there might be physical damage or misalignment. Since you're trying to avoid using a debug LED, it's wise to proceed cautiously. You could also double-check the BIOS version compatibility with your CPU model before attempting further steps. If the problem persists, consider reaching out to Gigabyte support for guidance on resolving the BIOS flashing issue.

It’s not working well. You should fix it or switch to a different board. The BIOS version F20 on MB rev. 1.0 and FA on MB rev 1.1 support the 8400F.

It should restart automatically if there are no other components connected. That section in your photo seems off—it might not connect properly to the CPU pads.

Remember to start fresh. Each time I managed to flash the BIOS, the computer would shut down and restart.

You have a choice: install everything (CPU, RAM, GPU) or connect just ATX and CPU power. Q-Flash Plus skips the parts inside the socket, etc. The bent pins are probably the main problem.

Have we considered another perspective? It seems to be curved.
