I just received my ASUS A7N8X Motherboard, AMD Athlon 2800+ CPU, and an AMD approved TAISOL CPU Heatsink and FAN.
I also have two sticks of Kingston HyperX PC 3500 DDR RAM which I installed in the Memory Slots 1 and 3.
The Computer booted up the first time, but I noticed that the CPU registered at around a 1350 GHZ CPU.
I then went into the Motherboard's BIOS and changed the CPU External Frequency from the Default 100 MHZ to 133 MHZ, and I then rebooted the Computer.
The Computer now refuses to boot up now although I get power, but I have no Video.
I cannot get to the Motherboard's BIOS Setup Screen to change any of the BIOS Settings.
I tried to reset the Motherboard's BIOS by first turning off the Computer, unplugged the Power Cord, removed the CMOS Battery, moved the "CLRTC1" Jumper from "1-2" to "2-3".
I then waited a few minutes and placed the "CLRTC1" Jumper Back to "1-2".
I reinstalled the CMOS Battery, I plugged the Power Cord back in, and I restarted the Computer.
I tried this Procedure many times and the Computer powers up, but I still have no Video so I cannot get to the CMOS Setup Screen.
I even removed the Kingston PC 3500 DDR RAM, and I inserted my old Kingston PC 2100 DDR RAM, but the procedure still will not work, and I still have no Video and cannot get to the BIOS Setup Screen.
What can I do now?
