bios issue

My nvidia based gaming built by me system has an issue with the computer
bios. The issue is that when the computer restarts often it goes into bios
safe mode to " reset cpu frequency" press delete to enter bios or f1 to
continue. I have uguru (abit) based motherboard diag software.

If I hit delete enter bios enter cpu area then hit F10 to save its good. If
I hit F1 then it restarts but will crash when I start uguru. Is this a
short on the motherboard. Because changing the cpu didnt help and when I
tried to overclock the cpu I got bios coruption on the screen letters all
over etc like if I pluged in a bad fan or something. Tia Peter

Give the complete lack of details regarding your system components and BIOS
settings, it's impossible to give an answer. I'd suggest you simply run
everything at the default BIOS settings until you are able to properly
explain what you are doing and what settings you are using. A more
appropriate venue for a coherent detailed post would be

Ah, you mention uGuru so you're overclocking it. Looks like you
overclocked it a bit too much and may have fried the chipset or your
RAM.

I think you've just been taught a lesson.

As a Brit I'd like to thank the Americans for their help in the war
against terror because if they'd not funded the IRA for 30 years, we
wouldn't know how to deal with terrorists.
