I've been trying some overclocks for my 1200 and observed that my RAM was at 2133 MHz. After choosing the 2400MHz XMP profile and exiting BIOS, the system booted up but the screen remained off and neither the mouse nor keyboard activated as expected. I had to remove and reinsert the CMOS battery to get the PC running again. Could there be an issue with the timings or something else?
