Been a while since I've posted in these parts :)

Basically was doing a mini upgrade on my PC and tweaking my overclock settings, I messed up the voltage a bit and couldn't get it to post. So I took the CMOS battery out to reset the BIOS to factory default settings which I've done a few times before without issue.

Whoever, on rebooting I noticed that the monitor was displaying an indirect resolution and the colours were way off, I can't access the internet despite being wired in and the system was being very slow. Wondered if it was a driver issue but they are l up to date, although Windows won't recognise my monitor.

Any idea what the problem could be? I've gone through the BIOS settings with s comb trying to find the issue, I did a system restore to a point I made 3 hours ago but that just crashed it.
 
Ended up doing a full reinstall including the OS, worked fine after that. Not sure what went wrong to begin with :/
