Unplug - take out your battery and leave it out for an hour or so (or do the jumper method - either works fine). Replace, plug back in and try booting again.
 
ah dude thats hard luck - its trage that its telling you its the cmos and then not allowing it to be fixed by taking the old battery out - im a little confused as to why it would be the cmos that is effected by using coolbits - didnt think the cmos would be affected by this........?
 
Have you tried the card in another machine? Strange that overclocking the GPU would screw your board up - even if it is a gigabyte :p
 
Try it in something else! Like w3bbo says - it's unlikely the board would screw up! :confused:

Maybe the board's just chosen that moment to give up and your 8800's fine?!

Off topic - I like the new sig w3bbo! :cool:

will try my card in this set up tomoz tryed my ati in it and same as
strange thing tho this system sort of had same prob today as well i just had to format this 1
