PC not working after new CPU

How far are you able to get during the boot process?  To Bios? Windows Loading Screen?  Windows Login?  Desktop?

 

Just suggested this to someone else, but I'd remove the cpu, get a can of compressed air, hold it about 10 inches away from the cpu socket and blow on the socket.  Then blow on the underside of the cpu as well.

 

I'd also unplug all power and remove the cmos battery then wait a few minutes.  Put the battery back in and try rebooting.

Well they might know what the 4 LED on the Mobo mean and can troubleshoot too. Just a thought.

Yeah I know but I’d prefer to fix it if it’s possible, or at least be sure it’s the board who is faulty 

Either you Installed everything wrong or the board is bad.  The LED light indicate each components isn't working normally. So...
