Earlier today, I changed the GPU clock for my HD4850 and my memory clock to 750 and 1058, respectively. Later, I attempted a very modest overclock on my Q6600 and 2x2GB OCZ Platinum PC2 8500 sticks. I increased the FSB for the ram and cpu from 1066 to 1100 and reduced the latency of my ram from 5-7-7-20 to 5-5-5-20 simultaneously while also increasing the ram voltage from 1.8V to 2.1V. Immediately after hitting save, my computer shut off, and every time it reboots it gives me a CMOS check-sum error, searches for it and about 4 seconds later restarts the computer. During this time I am unable to get any keyboard input through using either USB or PS2 keyboards. I tried taking out the ram individually and moving them around. I also tried a large number of combinations involving the CMOS reset jumper, removing the battery, and allowing different amounts of time for it to sit. Nothing has improved the situation in any way.
Does anyone have any suggestions for how I may attempt to fix this or things I should avoid in the future?
I am using the Corsair VX550 PSU.
The exact message I'm getting is:
"WARNING: BACKUP BIOS CHECKSUM ERROR!"
"BIOS AUTO-RECOVERING..............." *reboots*
