ive been messing with overclocking settings on a 63**

got a BSOD last noght and cleared the cmos, tried to load most of the overclock settings in that ive tried but none will load

pc boots but nothing happens


so have i *oi language!* the cpu?


please help lads :(
 
So system is not posting when overclocked?

raise the FSB by mhz and see what happens.

What was your OC, vCore etc.. before the BSOD?

wont boot from any other settings

settings before the BSOD was 1600 fsb 1.35625 volts on the vcore

memory was at 1.95 volts

Doesn't appear that you've done anything reckless to damage the CPU/MB.

hello BOSS lol what you think is happening then? as i said anything, evem 1 mhz o/c wont boot?

also left it in stock settings todat when i was at work and when i came home it must have had another BSOD as it was on but not responing
 
Sounds like you have a rogue setting in there somewhere from when you reset CMOS. Have you checked that the RAM settings are OK? What about CPU vCore?

ram is at 1.90 volts and the vcore is at 1.29 standard settings, hold on i think the RAM was at 1.85

I have done similar in the past. I got so fed up I threw the motherboard in the bin.

Could be something on the motherboard has blown or a corrupt bios. :confused: Some motherboards just take a hissy fit and don't want to clock again.

What motherboard is it?
 
yesturday my computer decided not to post (after working perfect for about 3 months), took every component out, except cpu, but reseated it with the intel hsf and reset the bios and still the same problem, no beep, nothing.

i rebuilt the pc very slowly in a different case and it decided to just start working...

but i can't get my 3.6ghz overclock anymore, even 3.2ghz fails after around 30 minutes of orthos. so i'm kind of ****** off with my mobo as i think this was the problem.

could be the same problem as you're having. this was a p5n-e sli btw.

Hah mate.. you're lucky. I've had 3 P5N-e boards go on me. Just froze in windows or loading windows and then refused to boot after that. 3!

Getting my replacement 4th one from OCUK today along with a refund of all the postage I've spent sending them all the way back to england. It's just a crappy board imo. Wish I wasn't cheap when I got it and bought a SATA harddrive then so I could just have gotten a decent board instead of this POS.
 
Could you have left C1E or whatever its called on, sometimes that wont let you overclock at all, also whats your psu? now i highly doubt thats the problem but if possible could you test with another one?

ECS NF650iSLIT
 
i'm sure it was £70, i think they are the only place that sell 'em...

my experience with ECS isn't actually bad, but simple things like the pci slots look and feel cheap and the layouts have little imagination to cooling.

if you're overclocking on a board not designed for it/not well reviewed for it, then expect problems.
