    Help!!! Man I Screwed Up Big Time (bios)

    can any one help me. I am kind of new to this bios stuff so I did tw things wrong:

    btw I have an AMD duron 900mhz and AMI bios

    first of all I have nnoticed my onboard graphic doohickey was taking my ram so I set something to like from pci to agp.

    Then I saw their was another cool looking thing, it said you could change the speed pf your mother board and had 2 options 900 and 1200, so being really stupid turned to 1200. Now When My computer comes on my monitor has no signal. Second of all my hard drive starts up but that is about it and does nothing after that. PLEASE HELP!!

    easiest way to reset your Bios is to remove the battery from the motherboard for a few minutes then replace.

    No thats why I posted what I did ;)

    One small thing is that by changing your FSB from 900 to 1200 is that you could have damaged something by having the setting wrong.... overclocking components can have some adverse effects.

    Your onboard graphics are supposed to take up RAM space, that is normal. If the onboard graphics didn't take up your main RAM it wouldn't have any place to put its information that it needs.

    and overclocking from 900 to 1200 is quite a jump so there is a good chance you fried your system, although I'm thinking you might have changed a setting that is incompatible with your jumpers therefor reading you CPU incorrectly
