Help Fast Please!?

Jayvon · 08-27-2006, 08:12 AM

Hey everyone I've got a problem now. I was messing around with overlocking my AMD 3200+ and now my computer turns on but nothing is appearing on my screen?

I overclocked the mhz to 265? and the voltage to 1.70?

I cant even go into BIOS anymore because nothing is being displayed on my LCD?

My specs are...

KN8 Abit Motherboard
AMD 3200+ / Zalman Fan
7900gt KO / Zalman Fan
x2 1gig Gskill ram
Samsung 250gig HDD

You need to reset your CMOS.

How do I reset it?

Jayvon · 08-27-2006, 08:31 AM

Please can anyone help me?

I looked at the other thread and it says to pop out the battery on your mobo to reset it. I did that and waited 10 secs, plugged the battery back in, and then plugged my cable back into the psu.

Powered it up but still the same thing... no display on my screen to go into BIOS?

yeah same thing happened to me so i decided not to overclock my cpu.

Don't OC to 265 Mhz and set your voltage to the highest, it doesn't work like that. From your original fsb, up it by 5 mhz, do a stability check

Woah ok dude seriously calm down. Read up on overlcocking before you do some serious damage. Overclocking takes time. You have to raise the HTT frequency in small amounts and raise the voltage accordingly. With an Athlon64 never put the above 1.6 otherwwise your CPU's days are going to be very limited.

pull the battery off your mobo for like a few minutes, put it back in and your bios is at square one
