Has this toasted the mainboard, CPU and/or RAM?

Hi,

I just put together a system based on a K7N2 Delta2 with an AMD Sempron
2200+. In an act of amazing stupidity and carelessness (being awake
for 30 hours is my only excuse) I set the CPU FSB to 300MHz from the
default of 200MHz, and rebooted.

Now the system does not POST and putting a jumper across pins 2 and 3
of JBUT1 to clear CMOS does not seem to make any difference either.

Is this recoverable, or have I likely damaged one or more components?

An email copy of any replies would be most appreciated, but I'll check
the group too.

Thanks,
Andy

Sure you are clearing the CMOS?

When you press power button do you have any lights or fans etc.?

No that didn't toast anything. Just rest the bios to defaults and
it should go.
