Hi. I recently increased the BCLK frequency on my motherboard from 100mhz to 104mhz.
My setup includes:
Ryzen 5 2600
Aorus Elite B450
8gb×2 vengeance 2400mhz
Zotac Mini 1070Ti
COOLER master MWE 550w psu
I have one m.2 and 2 sata SSDs plus 3 hard drives connected.

The issue started when I adjusted the BCLK and restarted the PC. It began beeping three times before shutting down forcefully. After a few cycles, it only beeped once and displayed the Aorus boot screen. Now the computer won’t start at all. Every time I try to boot, it gets stuck in the Aorus logo.

I attempted using Delete or F12, but nothing worked. The PC remains unresponsive.
I also tried removing the CMOS battery and holding the power button for 15 seconds, without success.

Anyone have any advice?

With power completely removed from PSU...
Disconnect all drives, SATA and NVME, and install a single RAM stick in the suggested slot.
Replace the BIOS battery once more, keeping the power switch pressed for 30 seconds...
Swap the battery in again, then restore power...
Until we manage to access or install a BIOS display, everything else takes a backseat. Stay calm, let the PC reset several times—those Ryzen chipsets appear to struggle with identifying components, and repeated self-resetting on the boards might be necessary.
It would be unusual for basic clock adjustments to cause lasting damage, but if we ever escape this situation, it’s best not to...

Until we can access or retrieve a BIOS display, everything else takes a backseat. Stay calm, let the PC reset itself several times—this is likely because the Ryzen chipsets are struggling to identify components. The boards may need to reset themselves multiple times before stabilizing.
It would be unusual for adjusting the base clock to cause lasting damage, but if we eventually escape this situation, avoiding further base clock changes might be wise.

Hi
I cleared all the SATA drives, took out one stick, and the motherboard started in BIOS. I reset everything to manual mode and tried booting again, but it didn’t work. Then I changed the memory speed from 2400mhz to 2866mhz and adjusted the CPU clocks from 3.4ghz to 3.65ghz, and now it’s booting into Windows. Thanks a lot for your help.
