lorne Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 Try taking the battery out and letting it sit overnight. Sometimes it can take that long for CMOS to clear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

exeter_acres Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 Pull the ram and try and turn it on...then reinstall the ram and do it again.... I used to have to do that with my Asus all the time... was the only way it would reset Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FanATIc205 Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 the A7n8x is known to just die after changing bios settings. for some reson the asus bios gets easily corrupted for some unknown reason. i really dont see taking the fsb to 145 and uping the voltage frying any component in you system. any way you can test the ram cpu,and video card ? that would help you narrow it down to what failed i have personally went thru 4 a7n8x dlx boards since they were first introduced seems about every 6 months it would just die. if it is you mobo try to see if the seller has a rma process. i know newegg handles mobo rma for up to year after purchase. if the seller doesnt have a rma for the mobo youll have to go thru asus for the rma.

ccokeman Posted April 25, 2004 Posted April 25, 2004 Adjust your memory timings back to stock if you can get back into bios. If you set them to tight then you can have that happen. My a7n8x did that a couple of times trying to run the timings to tight for the ram i had. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
