After I put my PC on standby...

After I put my PC on standby none of the fans turn off or
neone lights... (Processor fan, too) I had a previous
BIOS problem so I had to reset it manually. Could that be
a problem? (I tried to overclock my processor and
something went wrong...) Now, when I put my PC on standby
fans don't turn off! What is the problem?

Here my full PC specs:
Athlon 64 3200+ overclocked to 2.5Ghz (running cool)
NVIDIA FX 5200 overclocked
512 MB DDRAM 333 Mhz
Windows XP Home with SP1
4 fans (on the case)
1 neon light
1 standard AMD approved processor fan

Also, I tried to set it up to normal settings but that
didn't work too.. (No overclocking) Please write me a
walkthrough how to do this. Thanks.

Try taking the cmos battery out for 5 - 10 minutes then replacing it and
going into bios and choosing optimal defaults.

How do I take out CMOS battery?

Well on my mobos it's usually by the end of the pci slots, you can't miss it
really but it will require you to shutdown the pc take the side off, ground
yourself and look for a little round battery. It's silver in colour. Take it
out for about 10 minutes then replace it.
If you don't feel comfortable doing this take it to a shop.

One can usually "slide" it out with a screwdriver and slide it back in
with your fingers. Careful not to "overbend" the top tab keeping it in.

Suspend to RAM, the setting that affects this, is normally toggled "off". It
must be toggled on in the bios. When you reset the bios, it was turned off.
