OK, so I was messing around with MSI afterburner on my gtx550ti and set the clock and shader clack to high and I can't get it to boot to windows. I have no idea how to get it back to factory clock. All I can do is go into bios. I have an Asus m5a99fx R2.0 motherboard I need to get this running, all help is appreciated greatly.

If you shut down, take the card out and then re-seat it, it should reset Afterburner to default speeds. Also, to be extra sure of this, if you have onboard graphics, you can take the card out, plug your monitor into the onboard, uninstall afterburner, then shut down, put the card back in, and re-install Afterburner (if you're brave enough to have another go with it :)

P.S. - If you do have onboard graphics, don't forget to make sure it is set to primary in the BIOS before starting up with it.
