hi there guys. bought an oc'd bundle from overclockers a few months ago as old c2d build died. Neways, its definitely been a purchase that ive come to regret. It was initially an unstale overclock, and wouldnt boot when it arrived. i got it stable myself at 4ghz in the end.
Today, whilst at work, my girlfriend turned it on and said there was a cycle of coming to post screen with a 'failed to boot due to failed oc' message. She wasnt sure what was going on so just turned it off at the mains. When this happened to me in the past i would just go into the bios and reload the previous oc settings which always worked.
So today, when i tried to power up after work, the initial gigabyte screen logo comes up, but then before it gets to the post screen, it just restarts. It wont get past the gigabyte screen.
I have taken the onboard battery out to reset the cmos, and also tried booting with only the gfx card, one stick of ram and cpu and every time, exactly the same.
Id really appreciate some help guys. Im desperate and have no idea what to do.
