Why are you posting this here? I fail to see what a hardware issue, which
occurs before the OS is even loaded, has anything to do with Windows. RTFM
that came with your board or system or, failing that, call the manufacturer.

You'd also find better assistance posting to a hardware (*NOT*
microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware as that is for hardware issues from
within the OS) group.
 
Ask the person that "Overclocked" the CPU to fix it for you. That setting
does not change on it's own. It has to be set on purpose.
 
Overclocking is raising the voltage to the CPU to make it run at a faster
speed. Usually a setting in the BIOS.
