Post by Karchiveur »

Hey Peeps,

Its Being awhile since i have been on pca (damn computer)

-I got a friend to come over and help me with mmy commpter (Demrok)
and i had fried my cpu so he went to the city for me to get a 1.3ghz amd for me...
my mobo maxs at like 1.38 so overclocked it to that...
than i decided to push the limits:O... i got it up to 1.5 or so and now.. my mobo keeps freezing in bios when i want to change it back to a 1.3...

so heres the delima! should i buy another mobo? one that peaks at 1.6 or so?

or can i fix it?

LMK plz

Thx all,
Jordan

What kind of mobo/cpu?

To change it back just reset the cmos. On most mobo's it's a small jumper on the mobo you just have to insert in the pins next to it, then back to the original position. See your manual for where it wil be. This brings the bios back to default setting so you can then access it ok to make any changes.
