OCed PC won't Post

Go to solution Solved by iRileyx,

What did you change the multiplier to?

 

Reset CMOS to reset the OC and you should be able to boot fine then. Either remove the battery or do it with the pins on your motherboard if it has them.

Hey guys I really need some help right now. I decided to overclock my PC through the motherboard Bios and when I restarted my PC it wouldn't even post... All I did was changed the multiplier and kept the  voltage and everything else on auto... 

System Specs

AMD FX-8320

MSI Krait 970A

16Gb Kingston HyperX Ram DDR3-1866

MSI R9 380 Armor 2Gb

thanks for helping me out.

Not very high 17.5 to get it to 3.5GHz as the chip runs at 3.2 GHz. I'll go ahead and try to reset CMOS thank you.

I removed and reapplied the cmos battery and I still am not having the Post screen on my monitor... Do I have to completely remove the battery and try it without it?

Hmm, that motherboard should have clear cmos pins that you can short out to clear it, looking at pictures i can't find where it is though :P

I decided that considering all I've ever changed in bios was the overclock, I'd leave the cmos battery out for now and it works! Thank you soo much for your quick response!
