I spent the last two days setting up my system (click here) and as I was about to reboot to image the drive for backup, I was playing with the Gigabyte Easy Bios program in Windows. I set the throttling to cruise, then back to disabled (what it was originally) and exited.
When I restarted, the bios went into some sort of recovery mode and said "restoring bios from hard disk" then it completed and restarted but wouldn't post anymore. I reset the cmos after unplugging the power by shorting the pins for 30 seconds. When I tried to power on, it'd turn on, off, on, off. I know it's getting power because all the lights, DVD-ROM light, and fans are on. But after 3 seconds, before there is any video, it powers off, then repeats.
Clearing the CMOS longer, by placing a jumper on the pins, yielded the same results.
Any help would be appreciated
