What did I do
I accessed my BIOS menu and selected the OC Genie 4 switch. I saved it to overclock my system. While checking my tower, it restarted. On the monitor, a flash appeared that I couldn't see clearly. After that, no signal reached the monitor. When I powered on the computer, all fans spun up and the GPU lit up, but the machine didn't start properly. I attempted to clear the CMOS, but that didn't help. I removed the battery, waited two minutes, then reinstalled it. Please let me know if this assists.
It's likely you overclocked too much and the system shut down right away because of an overvoltage condition. If resetting the CMOS didn't resolve the boot problem, it suggests the original issue might be related to the overclock attempt. Make sure to clear the CMOS by unplugging the computer and removing the battery for about ten minutes; some boards have capacitor layouts that slow down this process.
