Do you know if your motherboard bios supports the i5-2450M? It is not enough to be socket compatible and chipset compatible. You MUST also be BIOS compatible. If not, the processor work partially, or not at all.

Contact the motherboard manufacturer and find out.

Sorry, there is nothing that can be done here. You need to find out if the bios supports the processor.

You do know that the processor is discontinued and not supported, correct?
