Something just went wrong!

Alright, I finished downloading Primer35, ran it and it just restarted my computer. While turning on the computer a message comes up saying,"A 266MHz system bus processor is installed. This processor is not supported on this system board and will run at reduced processor clock speed. System performance will be impacted." Then the next page of BIOS, something comes up saying NTLDR is missing, hold Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart. Help me please! I will check this thread back in 5-10 minutes.

How far did you overclock it? It's probably unstable. So what you would have to do, is increase the voltage on the vcore, by one notch.

i just googled NTLDR btw i think you made a typo you messed up the D and the L. i found this tread on a different forum that should be helpful "NTDLR" is missing

good luck

IMO, it's time to reinstall windows.

It's a newly built computer. Barely 3 weeks old.
