So I decided to overclock my CPU today. I have this motherboard with a 3000+ venice. I was able to set my FSB to 233. When I set it to 266 it would not boot and I have gone back and reset the bios and it still won't boot! I did not change the volt settings anywhere. Just the FSB.

The mobo still reads the CPU/HD/RAM. I just can't get it to boot. I have tried booting from an XP cd and the hard disk. Still no luck.

Any help/comments would be appreciated. Thanks

so just to clarify you have gone into the BIOS and you have tried to boot from the CD-ROM, aswell as the HDD's, and nothing will work .. and this is directly after you attempted to OC?

I would recommend that you try removing the CMOS battery for a couple of minutes then replace the battery and try again, for starters.
