I know this isnt exactly the right place to post this... but...

Anyone familiar with BIOS Error 8302?, after I done some tweaking and overclocking within the BIOS, I got this error at POST:

Checking NVRAM...
Unknown BIOS Error - Error 8302 Press F1 to Resume.

If I press F1 I can continue into Windows, Googling this shows that I'm not the only one experience this technical difficulty. I have already tried reseting the BIOS, take out battery, update newest version of BIOS, but this problem persists. However before I had this problem, I was over-volting my CPU and NB for overclock, and one boot-up gave me a warning message about CPU voltage too high. I rebooted and turned it down, however a few more boot-ups later I started seeing this message.

I know this may sound like my motherboard is damaged, but there are many others who had this same problem without tinkering with BIOS. Someone know a fix to this or is RMA my only option? anyone who can shed some light on this is much appreciated.

my system specs:
AMD X6 1090T
8GB(4x2GB) G.Skill Trident DDR3-2000
ATI FireGL V7700
OCZ Vertex LE 100GB SSD + WD Caviar Black 1TB
Corsair Professional HX850W PSU
 


You can ask the motherboard manufacturer what 8302 is. In the meantime, try to set the bios for "halt on no errors"

Happened to me few days ago, flashing new BIOS solved it.
