Hi
I've been using my custom PC for 1-2 months now, but sometimes my PC doesn't boot properly.
Usually, I just enter my BIOS and restart my PC and it's all fine again, but the problem keeps occurring which is making me rather worried.
This is exactly what happens:
When I overclocked my CPU I wasn't sure of how to do it. So I changed my RAM to XMP and then just increased the clock speed of my CPU. To make sure everything was OK I did some temperature testing and everything was very, very cool (below 60 degrees celsius).
Anyway, thank you for reading this. A solution would be greatly appreciated.
If you think the problem is my clueless overclocking just post a response asking for what data you need and then I'll go into the BIOS and fetch the current settings. I think most stuff is on AUTO.
Thanks again!

This is exactly what happens:
I switch my PC on, the PC starts up (lights on, fans spin, and then lights and fans go off; and then they turn back on and the PC boots) - on a side note is this even a problem?
My PC then either turns on as normal OR the PC enters this screen saying something along the lines of: "Overclock failed!" and then it tells you to enter the BIOS and reconfigure your settings.
Similar to this:
At this stage my Asus motherboard has 'bd' in its digital display but i couldn't find what that means.
I then enter the BIOS, and just start over, not changing anything, and my PC works again.
