Blank Screen After CPU Upgrade on Laptop

Ok, so I wanted to upgrade my old laptop the HP pavilion G6.

It turned out the best cpu that was compatible was the intel I5-480m with the G2 socket.

ok so far so good- I take apart the laptop and replace the cpu.

Ive already updated the bios to the latest version (F.66) and cleared the CMOS.

I am still getting  blank screen.

The display is getting power as I put in the old cpu and it still works.

Any help?

Thanks

Can you give a more precise model number?

Again there is always the possibility that the new cpu is dead. In that case I would have to replace the part. But none of the pins are bent so I don’t think it would be that.
