ok so i tried my 1st OC on this pos intel rig i built, well after the pos didn't boot i cleared the cmos and now vista has the loading bar and won't go an further so any help or advice would be appreciated i tried going F8 to no avail. worst case senario toss this unit and go back to my solid amd rig that never fails

Well, you're at stock now right and it still won't boot. I would lean towards maybe corrupted some files on the hd possibly.

So you overclocked...windows didnt boot, so you reset to stock, and it still won't boot?

try reseting jumper, and vista isn't your issue. There IS a problem here, but it would be ignorant to blame it on the OS.

I had a similar problem when overclocking.clearing cmos didn't help. I always got the blue screen or a restart loop and my fix was to repair vista.

Hope teh repair gets it taken care of. It can only de a couple of things since you had it booting fine before. The hd is what I always look at first though since it is teh boot device, especially if your at stock. Oh, guess it didn't, yea a reinstall should fix it then, just watch out for it next time.

And honestly, I can't call you rig a pos Intel system man, it's pretty sweet setup.

Is or did it bsod and give a code or would it just freeze?
