Unhappy BIOS won't flash

This PC came with 1+2 PC5300 RAM. I replaced with 2+2 DDR2-PC6400 RAM but it was still using it at the speed of PC5300. After changing the SDRAM speed and other parameters in BIOS it stopped booting altogether.
Now I just see a blank screen, no beeps, sound of running fan, led glows, no POST. So I can't even go into BIOS to change the setting. I tried taking out the CMOS battery overnight but that did not help.

This PC is between a laptop and a desktop. It has SODIMM memory, integrated screen, uses mini-PCIe, but has desktop motherboard DGM965RA (AA D70190), 3.5" SATA and looks like a desktop.
Please see http://support.gateway.com/s/ONE/101...4809Rsp3.shtml

Please help!

Does it boot if you put the other ram back in?

Perhaps you forgot to set DRAM voltage, if that is even an option.

More importantly, which set did you buy?
