fqpissed Its Happened again

After fixing the problem of the lost Bios yesterday by removing my
battery for 15 minutes, everything went fine and i was able to install xp prfesional with no problems, however not being content with this i switched of and moved jp4 from 100mhz to 133mhz (dont ask why cos everything was ok). Now im faced with the same problem, when i try to boot up the screen says no signal the led`s light up the fan works and the dvd rom spins but no boot sequence, Ive tried previous remedy and changing video card/ram etc but nothing.
could i have blown my processor ?(athlon xp 2100)

Also if it does get going should i enable/disable plug and play in the bios set up.
Please help

Cool

What mobo do you have? Have you set multipliers or is it set to automatically detect CPU? Go back to 100 for now and see if it will post and boot up. You may need to clear CMOS again but I don't think so. Also if you mobo BIOS has a failsafe default setting try that for the present.

ive tried clearing the cmos but still the same

I wonder if you bought memory that isn't capable of running at 133MHZ??? I am pretty sure your processor should have no problem with 133 but if you memory can't handle it then that could be why no boot or nothing...

You can leave plug and play enabled cause that isn't even coming into play at the point you are stuck at.
You should be able to make all changes in the BIOS and not have to mess with the jumper, but check the MOBO manual to be sure, and as suggested just put it back to 100 and you should be fine...

Does that board take SDRAM or DDR?
