Ok so I'm a dumb@ss...

I decided to up the bus speed of my system to 149 on my gigabyte ga-7dx running an XP1800+. My computer didnt like that much at all so now I try to get into the BIOS to change the setting back to 133 but when it goes to load the BIOS I get nothing but a black screen with a cursor blinking. How can I set this back so that I can use my computer. Please help me.

Tried resetting the cmos yet?... this is usually done by moving a jumper... consult your mobo manual... but you'll probably need to switch it as the instructions indicate... leave it there for a couple minutes... then switch it back to the non-reset position, and try to boot up again.

Yes try to reset the bios by jumpers or pulling the cmos battery for a few minutes then replace...It should revert back to bios defaults...

U have to do it slowly. Small increment on FSB until PC not stable, up the vcore, up the FSB again. U just can't jump 149 straight.
