Hello Everyone,
I recently purchased a used gaming pc from a mutual friend of mine. As you could expect everything was going good until about a week ago.
Here are the specs for my pc:

There are a few case fans I didn't add to the parts list. About a week ago I went to boot up the system and I got an error message regarding multiple failed boots due to an overclock. I myself am new OCing and wasn't even aware that there was an OC on the processor. My gaming performance before the error message/failure was pretty nice for what I was playing. I had WoW running on ultra at a steady 55-60 fps while questing and whatnot (Might dip down to 45 fps if there was alot going on). I also play SWTOR and was running it on very high setting and getting approximately 60-70fps all the time with no issues. Now when I play both games I'm looking at no more than 23-25 fps on either at the same settings. Further more when I lower the settings my fps is still that low, if not lower. As far as the OC goes, my friend stated that he did OC the processor to 4.2ghz. What can I do to fix this?
