Overclocked and then...

[lyecdevf]

I overclocked my processor and I played some games on it...seemed stable although the reset button did not work really...but then the next day I could not boot into it any more for some reason. I had this problem when I overclocked it too much but then I fixed the problem. So I tried doing the same now but it did not work and I reset my BIOS back to defaults and every thing but it still did not work. I tested two hard drives on it and I got the same thing. What did not I do to fix this?!

Try running it with bare minimums. PSU, one stick of RAM, GPU, CPU of course.

Other thing I would try, reseat your CPU. Take it out, put it back in. May sound weird, but I have done it before.

For some reason my new DVD writer the samsung sh-s222 bothers my computer. As soon as I disconnected it everything was fine. Why would this be. I paid 25 euros for it. Now I have to overclock it all over again. I mean this really upset me.

Have you tried a different sata port? or made sure it was plugged in well... or the cables not bad.

Could just be a bad drive too.

Well oc'in g should be easier this time... especially if you remember your settings.

It is an IDE drive. I think that it is plugged in well but I was kind of rough with it the last time maybe that would be the cause of this problem?!

yHA, CHECK ALL THE PINS ARE, oops, still in place or and not bent.

Is it set in the right mode?
