I have an X2 3800+ on an M2N-E motherboard. It crashed while I was playing Hitman Blood Money, my ears are still killing me from that last blast that went through my headphones. I went into the bios to change the settings, I have to press delete during boot up to enter the bios, it does that fine, but my keyboard won't work in the bios to change the settings. It's overclocked right now and I want to put it back to stock, except that I can't because the keyboard won't work anymore. Any ideas of what's wrong? Thanks.
edit: It's not a keyboard problem, because both of my keyboards don't work on it now. This isn't looking too good right now. Sometimes it won't even get to the bios.
edit2: I just let it boot without touching it and it won't boot anymore. It'll get to a black screen with a white line flashing at the upper left corner of the screen. So I think there's something horribly wrong with this computer now.
 
Are the keyboards USB keyboards? If yes, can you get a PS/2 keyboard from a friend and try?

You can always reset the BIOS to the way it was when you bought the motherboard by resetting the CMOS. You can find instructions for doing that in the motherboard manual.

Usually, you power down, remove the CMOS battery from the motherboard, set a jumper as shown in the manual, wait a few seconds, reset the jumper, put the battery back in and power back up.

I only have PS/2 keyboards lying around the house. My USB mouse doesn't light up either though. When I first boot up the computer the numlock, caplock and scroll lock lights blink like normal, then it doesn't work. I guess I'll try reseting the CMOS when I have the time to sit down with it and try it. Thanks.
