ah.. ya.. definatly dont want to be neuter'ed...

good to hear that I cant damage it that way. I'm not sure how to short the pins, but i'm fine with resetting the battery, so I'll stick to that if I need to. what does upgrading the bios really do btw? give me more options or make it more stable er somethin?

I've got to head out after this post, but I'm curious. Can the not posting hurt the comp? like fry something? or it just means I'll have to change settings back. the main reason I'm afraid of that is because I thought maybe it could damage something. Thanks much for the help though, I'll try...

yes, it was working. But.. when I rebooted to change to the next set of options you specified.. It would not post. I never got to try the second set. it booted with the mem 100 cpu clock ratio 10 cpu clock 232 cpu overvolt 5% but when i rebooted to change to the next ones, it would...

Ok. tis a shame it didn't quite work out the way I wanted, but Thank you very much for all the help though, you're awesome.

I've got all the settings back to default and it boots ok now.. do I still need to redo the CMOS battery? what does removing/replacing it do anyway? I'm kindof weary of changing the settings back to the original ones you told me, cause it was on those when it would not post. I never tried the...

bad news I think. When I went to reboot and change to your new set of proposed changes, my computer would not post. It merely made 2 low toned buzzing noises. I tried to press the reset button, same thing happened. I turned off my computer for about 5 minutes, kicked it back on and it booted...

Ok. I've changed these settings. CPU-Z now shows my core speed ad 2320, it was 2200 before. How can I tell if this is stable though and not going to hurt anything?

I can change them all except the cpu clock to 240, so I exited without saving. under my cpu clock it says: min 200 max 232 enter a DEC number
