Hello,
I have an PCChips socketA motherboard( M810LR with SIS 730(730s) chipset , AMIBIOS ) and CPU Duron 600 MHz. I try to set CPU's frequency from BIOS to 800 MHz (it is stupid, I know) and , after that, my system didn't boot at all. Beep code is somthing like this: 2-3 shorts beeps , 2-3 seconds pause, again and again.
I think the CPU is dead, could be something else?

Sorry for my English, and thank you in advance for sugesstions !

Remove power from your PSU - then press power button to unload capacitos on the Mainboard - remove Battery and shorten the battery contacts with a screwdriver .
