Spec is as per my sig.

After a recent play with the new GPU tool utility the GFX overclock failed and i needed to hard reboot my PC, upon reboot the monitor instantly went to "Entering Power Saving Mode" and the PC failed to POST / Boot.

No biggy, my PC has done this a few times when OCing of teh CPU or GFX has failed, so did a quick jumper reset and away I went.

Everything was fine for a day or two until Saturday when, intermittently, when I boot the PC stops POSTing, the monitor goes to Power Saving Mode and fails to boot. A quick press of the reset switch is usually enough for the PC to reboot and POST but then get "Overclocking Failed" message, Hit F1 to enter setup, F2 to load defaults. Hit F1, Enter Setup, Hit F10 to save and Exit, boots fine. Annoying but it boots.

Until this morning - It just appears to start booting, lights on mobo, fans spinning, LED action on the Power LED to the case, Monitor eneters power saving and the PC doesnt appear to carry onto POST or boot. Trying the reset doesnt work and before leaving for work this morning approximately 10 start attempts have failed :(

Anyone got any thoughts or suggestions - would be greatly aoppreciated

Cheers
