Just use the jumper for clearing the CMOS to do just that. Set the jumper back to normal, and this problem will be solved. Just take note of any BIOS settings which you changed from the defaults before doing this.

yes im the first user, i was there watching the tech guy build it, he broke the seal on the mobo, besides why would anybody return a socket A mobo with a Kt266A chipset? it's top of the line!
