CPU or memory problem

[Ra1der]

Hello

my computer starts to act ugly on me... the other day it just shut down itself, tried to turn it back on but still was turning itself off right after i turned the power button on. I've waited until today turned it back on and got this message right at the bios start screen: Warning! Now system is in safe mode. Please reset CPU or Memory frequency in the CMOS setup.

Anyone has any ideas?

My computer Specs:

Intel Core 2 Quad 6700 2.66 GHZ
RAM: 4 GB
MOBO: Nforce 790i ultra
xfx gtx 280
OCZ 1000 watt

Try resetting the CMOS:
-turn off the computer
-unplug it
-open case
-find a "watch battery" on the motherboard
-remove it
-wait like 10 seconds in case there are any capacitors
-put it back in
-close your case
-plug computer back in
-try booting up.
