Asus P5N-E issues

Hey guys, my friend has recently (last night ;)) attempted his first overclock, with 3.2ghz the traget. Using a q6600, o5n-e and 4 gig of geil Black dragon ram, he put in the following settings, vcore 1.35, fsb 333fsb and no other voltage increases. :rolleyes:

After rebooting, his pc would stick on the black asus screen before post. We have tried unplugging all drives, different ram, cmos resets, reseating the gfx card, reseating all power connectors to no avail :(

Any suggestions at this point bar RMA on the motherboard??

Thanks guys. :)
 
Nope

Unfortunatly not, we have even left the cmos battery out overnight ( all these mysitcs say 3 days pfft) and no joy. Thinking bios on the board may have crapped it self. Could it actually be the CPU has copped it?
 
Very rare for that to happen. Three days without the battery is really unnecessary, to clear the bank u only need to remove the battery, disconnect from the mains and keep pressing the on/off until all the lights go from the mobo.

I`d try taking everything out except the gfxcard, a clear of the bios, stick 1 stick of memory in slot4 and fire it up.

If it fires up and sounds like it`s working - cept u cant see anything on the monitor, then thats another story.
