PB5 bios reset, hangs during booting

[pelewis2]

I must have increase the frequency too much for my PB5 and 6300 and when I went to reboot the system hangs up and doesn't show another to the screen. If I turn the computer off and try to reboot the system may try to post then give me an overclocking error asking for me to press f1 to change the settings or f2 to reset all settings and continue the book, I attempt to press one of these and nothing happens... is there any way to do a hard reset and has anyone ever heard of this before?


The setup was working just fine before I overclocked too much:
P5B
C2D 6300
4x512 corsair ddr2 800Hz
seagate 320GB 7200.10
seagate 250GB 7200.10
asus 7600gt silent
zalman 9500
antec sonata II
antec smart power 450

Try resetting the CMOS jumper. May do the trick. Instructions are in your MB manual.

It turns out that the problem was not as complicated as having to do a CMOS clear, turns out my multi function keyboard was just set to a different mode so instead of pressing f1 it was giving my battery information... brilliant I am.
