... Be able to support a quad core cpu?

It was on a dual core before it broke, i replaced it and broke my cpu so i bought a quad core im wondering. Will it support it and one more question

My pc wont turn on (i press button but nothing happens) is this due to my cpu breaking? or my poor rewiring (theres lots of tiny connections
