Hey guys, please help quick i'm at college and need my computer, i was underclocking my overclock a little because i didn't need it that high. I restarted my computer to test my settings and now i get a Bios ROM Checksum Error, and it prompts me to put a disk in my A drive, what should I do, tried clearing the cmos, didn't work. I think i did it right.

I get the exact same error! I was trying to flash the bios (I'm using a DFI nf4 Ultra-D) with awdflash. I flashed it and restarted the system, and then I got this :
Bios Rom Checksum Error

Is there anyone who can help?

From a failed BIOS flash, you need to perform Award's BIOS recovery procedure from a bootable DOS floppy disk. Google for it.

From an overclocking attempt, it's most likely not an actual ROM error, but failing RAM. Reset your settings, if all else fails by resetting the CMOS storage.
