I think i overclocked my pentium too much to the point where i get no signal on my monitor. I tried clearing cmos with a screwdriver because my motherboard didnt come with a jumper. i bought a couple more CR2032 batteries for my motherboard and replaced my old one but that didnt do anything. i took my graphics card out, my wifi adapter, all my ram exept for one stick and i unplugged my dvd drive and hdd. nothing has seemed to work. i looked on the internet for an answer and i couldnt find one out of many threads that had worked for me.

SPECS -

CPU - Intel Pentium G3258
GPU - MSI GeForce GT 740
RAM - 8GB Crucial DDR3 PC12800 1600MHz CL11
4GB Kingston Hyper X DDR3-1600 CL10 (yes i know they're mixed and its not recommended but it worked)
PSU - Cooler Master Thermal Master 420W ATX Power Supply w/ 6pin PCI-E
HDD - WD Blue 1TB Desktop Hard Disk Drive WD10EZEX
DVD Drive - Lite-on Internal DVD Writer,OEM PACK

hmm the only option i can think of is take the cmos batt out for 10 seconds..and unplug the whole comp for 10 seconds too. same with monitor
If nothing then maybe contact the manufacturer but they wont take kindly to OC it. GL

You know what worked for my PC not being able to boot anymore? I cant tell surely but it did work after reseating the RAMs. I also took out the Motherboard BAT for 30+ mins. I think its a combination of reseating and that. But try reseating and cleaning the copper parts that make contact with whatever, piece of cloth or eraser as people say. Clear your PC from dust. And start it back up
