So I upgraded my old intel Pentium E2210 in a eMachines ET1810 to a Intel core2 quad q9550 and after installing it my computer randomly freezes. The ideal cpu temps are around 50 degrees and the bios is up to date. I’ve also checked all the drivers and they’re fine. Any suggestions of how to help?

 

PC Specs:

CPU- Intel Core2 Quad q9550

Mobo- eMachines ET1810 motherboard 

GPU- Nvidia GTX 770

Ram- 2x2gb Gskill DDR2 800mhz 

PSU- Rosewill Performance RP550-2

Try taking out the ram sticks and putting them back in

I’ve done that already with no luck. I’ve also reinstalled windows and reinstalled the CPU itself as well as the 4 pin connector. Any other suggestions?
