regarding CPU Overclock - AMD PC won't boot...

J

Joe

I changed my CPU overclock speed from 200MHz to 380 and now when tried to
reboot the system it won't do anything. It won't even let me go back into
CMOS setup program.

What should I do to set it back where it was before?

As soon as I boot the system now it basically freezes at the initial boot
screen where it says press DEL to get into CMOS program.

Please Help!

You nearly double the speed to your proc and you ask for help? I think you
are beyond the help of anyone here...we are not Psychiatrists who are able
to deal with people who do completely crazy things like nearly double the
clock speed of their processors.

Overclocking involves more than just adjusting clock speeds, and changes are
made in very small, very methodical steps.

You should not be playing with things you do not understand.

Look in your motherboard manual for instructions to clear CMOS. Follow those
instructions and your BIOS settings will be reset to defaults.
It would also help if you provide details, such as motherboard manufacturer,
model, etc. in case you cannot find the procedure.

People! I took care of the problem! All I had to do was to clear my CMOS
to the default setting. and I was back to normal.

That's how we all learn right...

Thanks for your help

I guess the God of overclocking has spoken.

Oof.

You could try overclocking in small increments. Depending on your hardware
you'll be able to get at least some performance increase. Try starting at
210 and up from there.
For higher numbers you'll need to raise CPU and memory(vdimm) voltage and
lower HTT(hypertransport bus) to x4 or x3. My 2800+(1800 default) is running
at 250 FSB with HTT set to x3. Makes the CPU run at 2250 and actual FSB 410.

either try ur mobo jumper to reset mobo failing that try taking ur battery
out then replace it again.

;-] as they said if u don't know don't fu** with it....

fuuuuuukin ell
lol
clear the bios..
and then sell the shit on ebay if it starts..

You need to learn to RESEARCH some shit before you start doing this kinda
stuff..

try doubling your cars rpm's and see what happens lol.

No..
Most of us learn by stepping things slowly..

The only problem with slow steps is having your slots running abnormal.. But
slow stepping usually works well for a newb

At first I thought he was kidding!
After all, it,s like going to a Harley swapmeet to ask advice on fixing a
moped.
But then, since most bikers started small, maybe it's NOT so strange after
all...!

Yeah,it's rocket science to some people.
