Help!! Can bootup past POST,

[dave8624]

I have an ASUS P5N32-E 680i MOBO and I was trying to OC but cant bootup past the POST message, how to I reset the CMOS, where is the jumper located? Thanks.

If you cant find jumper try this:
uplug power cord
remove CMOS battery
press the power button a few times
plug in power cord
boot computer
let it load, it should say something along the lines of CMOS cleared
turn off computer
unplug
replace battery
plug in
poweron
enter bios and reset to default

Now ur back to default BIOS settings and you can start over. I did the same thing a little while ago.

Whats up man, i have the same MOBO, its a bitch to OC with. It can do a great job but u have to find the perfect voltages witch i have failed to do. Anyhow the jumper is located in the bottom right portion of the mobo/ SW of the sata ports.

If you find a good setup for ur OC pls let me know. Ive been trying for days and only really got it to work really well overclocked to 3.1GHz. I got it to run at 3.2, but the temps weren't worth it. To even get my CPU to run at a FSB of 1600MHz i had to up Vcore pretty f-in high, like the 1.5ish range. Should rarely have to go that high. I may have just gotten a gimped CPU, or a gimped Board, pls let me know how ur OCing goes.
