I inputted the incorrect FSB setting for my processor in the BIOS, and now when I turn on the computer, my monitor dosen't start. It responds as if there is no signal. My drives blink and run, power goes to everything, but no monitor signal. it appears to do different things if i, say, hit del. on the keyboard. In my motherboard manual, it says to press page dn. at boot to go back to the default CPU setting, but that dosent appear to do anything. Does anyone know what happened? If my motherboard broke, im gonna be pretty pissed, since i just got it a week ago. Think newegg.com will replace it if that is the case?

nevermind, I solved the problem. For the sake of the archive, I had to remove both the CMOS battery and the move the BIOS reset jumper over, wait a few minutes, then put everything back in its place and restart.
