No POST with ASUS Mobo

I have a Asus A7V133 with a 1.2 Ghz AMD Duron processor. The other day I was poking around in the BIOS and saw a setting that would change my CPU from 1200 to 1600 Mhz. Having formerly successfully overclocked my Duron 750, I changed the setting, confident I could restore the BIOS to its original settings if it failed.

Needless to say, the system didn't and won't POST. I've tried everything to get it going. I switched to jumper mode and ran the FSB at 100 Mhz and it sill didn't POST. I dropped in my unlocked Duron 750 and set it back to JumperFree mode. No luck. System powers on, beeps once, and shuts off.

I switched it back to Jumper mode with the 750, no luck. I unplugged the machine and took out the CMOS battery, let it sit overnight, it does the same thing when I hook it back up, with either processor.

Any ideas?

Have you checked you memory sticks ?

Had the same problem with my old mobo after an overclock and found if I removed one of my sticks ( which I found does not allow me to overclock it at all ) and got my mbob to post again.

After it posted I could set my bios setting back to where they was, and install the stick again.

BTW, I had two 512 Mb sticks.

Since you have reset the BIOS and tried a differenent working processor, about all that is left is the memory. Try a different stick of RAM. If that doesn't do it, you've probably screwed the MB. Sorry. I'll see if I can come up with something else to try but don't hold your breath.
