Try cleaning a contact points on processor (not a socket! ) by i.e. alcohol.
Like Neon_WA said it should work. Maybe chip is dead.

No, you can change but sometimes CPU support list is limited in OEM BIOS. What I can recommend you is try with different RAM or put in only one memory stick in different banks. I have had a same problem and that was memory incompatibility.
