Hello,

I bought some new RAM, installed it and played around with some of the timings and stuff but now my PC won't boot up (oops)

Is there a way to restore the BIOS default memory settings without wiping my BIOS? It's been flashed and I really don't want to undo it.

Thanks

Edit: Wrote BOIS instead of BIOS hahaha

Yep it's easy do restore the defaults. Just unplug your PC and pull the little battery on the motherboard out for a couple minutes. Then put it back in and you should be good to go.

Cool, thanks for the speedy reply! :)

The battery is hidden behind a maze of cables and I'm far to tired to do any more tonight. I'll do it in the morning when my brain in fully functional and I'll post an update :)

Thanks again! :)
