    My problem is that after installing a new processor A10-4600m instead of A8-3510mx, my laptop (hp pavilion dv6-6b04er) will not start, but the light logo on the lid, and blinks caps-lock. Bios version F.1A. what is the reason?

    Ouch, bad news friend.
    Trinity APU's do not work in Llano laptops. If you can, return the A10 and get your money back.

    The A10-4600m uses the FS1r2 variant of the FS1 socket. I can't find much more information aside from that fs1r2 processors don't work on fs1 motherboards.

    FS1 is what your laptop is using.
