sanjoa Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Hi, nsane family. How are you? I thought this was only a error from my mom's computer, but it happened twice today. While powering it on, it boots OK, untill Windows login (it has multiple users). When she wants to use it, it goes dark and I have to reboot it, and this error message appears: Warning!!! The previous performance of overcloking is failed, and the system has restored to the defaults setting. Press any key except "DEL" for enter setup. Press DEL to enter setup or F11 to boot menu. It has not been overclocked never. The OS is Windows 7 Enterprise x86 SP1. May this be a virus or CMOS battery is dying? After that it works normally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyWalkerX Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Do you think your PC was overheated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myidisbb Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 overclock means heat so heat warning yeap just guessing laptop or desktop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreeRyde Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 My first thought is the same as SkyWalkerX.Possibly a fan or dust issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WaKa WaKa Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Switch off your computer.Switch off the power supply.Unplug it.Remove the CMOS battery and wait for 15 minutes.Put the CMOS batter back and plug everything back in.BIOS should reset and you should be okay.Maybe its time to replace the battery. Check if the Bios keeps resetting itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambrocious Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Sounds like your hardware may be going bad, at least one thing might be. Heat is probably the issue which is causing the hardware flaw, or visa-versa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
