I bought this mobo off of overclockers as it was cheap enough, and claims to support ivybridge processors (I have a 3570k), but I'm having serious issues with it. When I turn it on, the BIOS appears for 3 or 4 seconds, then the system powers off, then reboots to a black screen. The keyboard does not work when BIOS loads, so I don't really know what to do. From reading around online (I understand that I did this a little late yes) I need to upgrade the BIOS, but I cannot access the BIOS to do this. Is there any other way to get this done?
 
You will need a sandybridge cpu to update the bios, unless overclockers will help you out, contact them.

Otherwise its a case of buying or borrowing a cpu.
