HP Compaq 6005 Pro SFF PC
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I have a HP Compaq 6005 Pro SFF PC with the AMD Athlon II X2 B24 Processor (AM3 socket), 4gb DDR3 RAM, 128GB SSD. From HP Support Center, it shows that the AMD 785G chipset supports the AMD Phenom II X4 B95 Processor (AM3 socket). http://h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/doc/public/display?docId=emr_na-c03414737

 

I purchased the Phenom II X4 B95 Processor and installed it on my already working system. Upon startup, I have no display to my monitor, no power to usb devices (mouse/keyboard), and receive 9 beep codes during POST.

This would indicate an issue with the motherboard or the processor.

I reset the CMOS and now I do not get the 9 beep codes but my display is still not working and the usb devices are not receiving power. Everything else is running (Fans, cd-rom). I have a solid state hard drive installed that I assume is receiving power since everything else is.

 

I reinstalled the Athlon II X2 B24 Processor and the PC starts up normally without issue.

My bios version is 1.17 which is the latest bios version available from the HP Support/Driver Downloads page.

I reverted to v1.16 and tried again but receive the same outcome.

 

From what I have read on many support forums they recommend to update the cpu code in the BIOS (I assume update the BIOS to the newest version)

 

Any suggestions?
