Recently bought a pc and tried to upgrade it with new cpu (5800x) and motherboard (B550-F) When I plug the PC in a red light comes up on the Motherboard and the lights come on but when I press power button nothing working.

Tried reinserting CPU, RAM and replugging in everything.

Any help would be nice as I am stuggling on google to find the solution.
 
Hello

Make sure that the mobo isn't touching any metal and make sure your stand offs are in the correct position.. If these 2 things are not causing the issue , did you install the chipset drivers for the new mobo?
 
is the old memory compatible with the new motherboard?
and is the new processor compatible?
maybe the BIOS needs an update to support your processor.
