Hi!

I get a D875PBZLK desktop Mainboard. I changed the memory setup for 5-3-2-2. This setting should be OK for the OCZ PC3200 Platinum Edition. Anyway, the PC does'nt POST anymore. I get nothing on the monitor; the l.e.d. light stay yelow not green. According to the reference guide there is 3 modes with the bios configuration setting jumper.

1- Normal (default): bios use the current configuration
2- Configure: After POST the bios show thw maintenance menu. clearing password.
3- Recovery: The bios recover data from a recovery diskette in the event of a failed bios update.

I don't get a recovery diskette and the PC doesn't post! Wath should i do? Remove the CMOS battery?

NEED your help

There is nothing about resetting the bios in the manual but wath i've written. Is it a critical operation; removing the CMOS battery?

No.
You only have to take it out.
Waite a few hours and put the Battery back.

and turn the power off first before clearing the CMOS memory (removing the bios battery).
