Hi everyone, I just built a pc based on another mobo. P5Q Deluxe.
The problem I am getting here is everytime there is a overclock failure. The screen won't load up, leave me a black screen like no graphics card is present. Everytime I have to switch off the main power to get the loading screen appear again.

Anyone knows where the problem is? why I can't get a load message if overclock failure happens?

Have you got the RAM set up properly? Check the voltage.

don't actually know how to set the ram, but the ram will put the loading screen off?

something daft already!! · 28 Oct 2009 at 12:15

Agreed. Also make sure you have the lastest BIOS installed just in case. I set mine manually to 1.9 and was fine @ 3.6 ghz on a Q6600 with ddr2 667 @ 801 ish.

If you are unsure what your doing copying another user is the worse thing you can IMO. Set every thing to defalut, get the info from your sticker on the ram sticks input in the bios correctly then overclock the FSB as normal and find out where your system is falling over

I would like to try them one value by one value, but the annoying thing is everytime it failed, it did not show me the load up screen, so everytime I need to reset the bios, which is a pain

So anyone knows how to prevent the loading screen from disappear?
