Do you see a number flash up when you boot it? If so try and find that number in the motherboard's manual and that'll tell you the problem.

I found the manual https://images10.newegg.com/UploadFilesForNewegg/itemintelligence/null/E8181_Maximus_V_Hero1434768803975.pdf   what would it be under?

Able to check what bios version you're running? you'll need 1603 or later for the cpu to work.

I don't, my friend bough the motherboard a while ago and never ended up using it, and it won't boot up at all really. It just turns on for a second then off, loops. Is the bios update something that could be causing it?
