Help msi b450 gaming pro carbon ac blackscreen after RAM Overclock


So I had purchased a new mobo and cpu yesterday and installed my parts. Everything was working fine till I accidentally saved a memory overclock in the bios. It gave me an error and now my computer boots up with the lights and everything but there is a black screen. I tried removing the CMOS battery and tried jumping the JBAT1 pins with a screwdriver because I don’t have a jumper cap but those don’t do anything and it’s still bricked. The mobo does come with a bios flashback but I don’t know if that could fix it. My mouse and keyboard will not power up either.  If anyone could help me figure this out it would be greatly appreciated

Hard to recall exactly what it was but it said that it was a failed ram overclock

system specs? do you remember the RAM speed that you accidentally set it too? Did you use Ryzen Master?

you might need to contact the manufacturer of your motherboard. Do you still have a warranty? That might be the only fix if a jumper and the battery did not clear CMOS

Yeah I still have warranty on it. I just hope I can get it working without having to send it back.

i mean if you jumped the board and took out the battery and that didnt work, there's really not much else to do sadly, good luck, I hope your board comes soon
