Crosshair V Formula Z boot error

[dontlikethis]

I have a problem with the crosshair v formula z motherboard,
as soon as windows start to boot it Shows a bluescreen.

i looked at the q-code, it says "F.F." looked at google,
realisied that it doesn´t recognize the cpu...

what should i do?

my system:
asus crosshair v formula z
amd phenom ii x6 1055t
asus gtx 660 ti
gskill ares 16gb
xilence modular series 1000w

Welcome DontLikeThis ...
First .. no offense .. Check the cpu fan connection [The fan spins ?? The PSU is working properly]
and double check the powerblock plug is completely seated.
Still no joy ?
Then I would do is take out the cpu and inspect it close for bent or missing pins.
Next Id look very close at the socket for dirt or 'whatNot' ... paste, ie .. ect.

What bios is on the serial number sticker .. usually on one of the pci-e lanes ???
The cpu support list show 225 [the original]
I am not sure if that means you may have to flash the bios back to tha version
is your board is one of the others .. ie .. 401, 508, 704, 901, 1002 or the latest 1101 ..
This would be a first that ive seen if so .. and if so .. you would be the first to need
a 'newer' cpu .. rather than older to flash back the bios ..
I cant imagine .. but 225 is what the support list shows.
[it may be that the list wasn't updated with the bios inclusions .. idk.forSure.]http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/AMD_AM3Plus/Crosshair_V_FormulaZ/#download

1st thank you for your quick reply;

i changed last night cpu and fan, same;
also changed psu, still nothing
the socket is also clear

the only sticker is near the backplate and says "crosshair (...) C8MOBX253056"

about the BIOS, i flashed it already to the latest version ...
[also tried another ssd]

thank you

If your motherboard has the shipping BIOS then the CPU is going to be picked up.

Which CPU did you swap out with? And do both those CPU's work in other boards?

[dontlikethis]

yes, i tried with the shipping BIOS ...

AMD Phenom II x6 1055t and 1045t; both worked in another board ...

RAM your board.

I got the FF error when my board caught on fire by the mosfet on top of the cpu.
