I recently switched the processor on the motherboard. At first it would startup with 3 long beeps and 2 short beeps. I turned it off to lookup what that meant. When I came back to try again now the computer will only turn on for about 4 seconds. The fans spin up and the internal light strip turns on, then it shuts off. It will do this indefinitely if I allow it.
I am thinking that I should try to clear the cmos\bios but I can't seem to get this to happen. I have tried pulling the battery for at least 10 min and just about every combination of jumper settings on the motherboard next to the battery with no success.
I have also tried switching to a different PSU, memory,and back to original CPU and nothing seems to allow the system to come out of the boot loop.
Please help as I can't think of anything else to do.
