System fails to start after installing i5 4460 processor
Hey there! It sounds like your new i5-4460 isn't getting power properly, which is why it won’t boot. The monitor showing 'no signal' suggests a hardware issue. Since the old i3 4160 works, maybe the problem is with the battery or power connection. Try removing the battery for 5 minutes again and see if that helps. If not, check the power cable, charger, or even try a different power source.
It looks like one component is functioning while the other isn't at all.
Check your motherboard model and follow the manufacturer's instructions for updating the BIOS. For Gigabyte GA-H81M-S2PV, visit their official support site or use a trusted BIOS updater tool. Always back up your settings before proceeding.
The board needs to include the CPU right away. It appears to be a non-functional CPU.
