No signal after clearing CMOS

Hey,
I was having problems and so chose to clear the cmos (using the jumper). Now there is no signal on monitor!
Just to make sure that it was cuz of clearing cmos, I had another computer with the problem so I did it to that one too lol. And that one also now shows NO signal on monitor. The monitor is working I've tested it with other comps. The picture was showing until i cleared cmos.
the two motherboards I have the problem on are:
MS-7267 Ver: 3.0
PM8M3-V H
Any help is appreciated. Everything is powering up, only thing is that nothing shows up on the monitor, and the monitor is in the "stand by" "yellow light" state.
Thank You

sorry to hear you got double wammy from your mobo but be frank with us did you turn the power off before changing the jumpers setting or 240volt to power supply was still connected on both occasions?? if power was connected you might have caused some damage to your mobo?? lets hope not.
try this if you have time and patient.
1-unplug the pc.
2-Remove all memory and insert only one in the slot1 which is closest to cpu. if you can try to interchange the memory if they fit.
3-change the jumper setting to position where it clears the cmos and please leave it for at least 30 second and not ten. then after 30 second put the jumpers in the original position (make sure you get this right).
4-then plug the pc and power it.
there are occasions where static charges do prevent mobo from working. it has happened to me, and i thought that i had lost the mobo yet it worked a few days later??
lets hope this gets you going.
good luck
p.s do make sure you connect the speakers to mobo, from bip bip sound you may be able to tell the kind of fault you have .

P6NGM no longer boots after clearing CMOS?

Hi all, hope you can help me with this.
I got a new graphics card today (PoV 9800GT), I put it in my P6NGM (not exactly sure which version, uATX, it has VGA and DVI out, but no HDMI) and it didn't work, I would get the regular boot beeps but no signal. Onboard card was working fine, so I was scratching my head trying to figure it out
Thought I'd clear the CMOS to see if it made a difference, so I turned the PC off, moved the jumper over, left it a little while, turned it back on and... nothing. Fans kick up but I get no beeps and no signal even on the onboard card now.
Only thing I can think of is when I first bought the mobo I found out it doesn't support 45nm CPUs as standard, so my E8400 wouldn't work. I borrowed my brother's 65nm c2d, updated the bios and after that my 45nm chip worked fine. Can clearing the CMOS somehow revert the bios version or has this got nothing to do with it?
Many thanks.

Really? How does that work? I see no supplemental power necessary. However, nowadays it all needs a 12v rail. Used to be most of it ran off the 5v rail, but no more. Can't know that unless you tell us. Too much guessing here. Please post your full system specifications.
Yes there's a few models out there now that have this, mostly on 45nm dies. Zotac do a similar one too.

Z77A-GD65 Wont Boot Without Clearing CMOS. Gets Error 32.

Hi!
I just switched GPU from 2x 7950 to 980.
I cleared drivers etc etc and was powering down my pc for the replacement. took out the cards and put in the 980.
When i later was trying to boot, i got debug error 32, which is early cpu initialization. So i checked all the cables and tried again. Same thing.
Took everything out and reinserted it again. Same error. even tried the to take out each ram to see. Still nothing.
I later cleared cmos and the computer booted. but then when i restart i doesnt boot until power everything down and clear cmos again.
Do you guys have any idea?
My specs are
Z77A-GD65
2500k CPU (Now after clearing CMOS at stock speed)
Corsair Vengance 2x4GB RAM
850W Bronze psu

Tryreplacing battery. Also could try to run it with single Ram stick and outside of the case.
I Couldn't wait so i went to town and bought me a battery, didn't change anything.
I've tried running a single RAM in each slot, just to try. no change there. Still error 32.
I've also test it outside the case now and still no difference.
Otherwise i've noticed i can boot if i press the reset button exact when debug code 55 shows. It's really weird. doing this way all bios settings are still there and i can test my pc with OC. I've played Dying Light on it this way with no problem at all. except this annoying code 32 who reappers everytime i restart my computer and hinders it to boot...
EDIT: Also sometimes (very rare), it starts at first boot.

Do i have to clear cmos after updating bios?

hi im about to update my bios to 1.9 ... do i have to clear cmos after bios update finish? and also clearing cmos is as easy as removing the battery for a while then putting it back in right?

in my opinion Clear Cmos should be always done after flashing,
to ensure that new BIOS will operate as intended
if you need see here for guide:

No Power After Clearing the CMOS

I have a 785GT-E63 motherboard. I had accidentlly pressed the clear CMOS button instead of the power button. There was power to the board. After the clear CMOS button was pressed there is no power. When I press the power button nothing happens. Did I kill the motherboard????

You do that to empty the capacitators and other motherboard componants from power, to be able to successfully clear CMOS. ... Have a feeling something else has happened at the same time.

Clear CMOS after every crash ?

After putting together a new system I have this problem.
When the PC freezes, and this happens instantly if I hit the "auto" button in the CoreCentre pannel it will refuse to boot up again. To unfreeze it I turn the main power off for a few seconds and upon turning it back on the MB comes to life for half a second and shuts down. This happens over and over, on its own. The CPU fan kicks in along with the blinky leds on the MB fan, and the power led on the front pannel comes up ..... only for half a second on, 1 second off, half second on etc.
Only way to cure is to clear CMOS ram and the system will fire up as norm.
Ideas?

Do NOT use the Auto Overclock button on "Core-Center" , as this Feature Raises your FSB until your PC Fails , and this is supposedly the Highest that you can Set your FSB to Upon Reboot, I dont Recomend Using Core-Center for ANY Hardware Changes, as it is still a project that is in the Works......Use "Clock-Generator" for Raising your FSB or Use the BIOS, and for Monitoring your Temps and voltages use "Speed-Fan".........Sean REILLY875

970 GAMING black screen when boot on cold start, have to clear CMOS everytime

I have 970 GAMING w/ FX8320, it shows black screen when boot on cold start, have to clear CMOS everytime to enter default.
I have updated it to the up to date M11 bios. Once it boot up, it functions OK no matter whether you reboot or reset it. But after turned off a few hours (cooled down), it shows on black screen again on boot, all LED lights up OK, but I can hear the fan like keep rebooting, any idea?
PSU seasonic 430W, GPU HD7750.

In what DIMM slots did you insert your memory? I just got and at this moment building a new computer with a 970.
A horrible experience I had with my last build reminded me of it. My board was am MSI A88XM-E45. DIMM1 is blue, DIMM2 is black, DIMM3 is blue, & DIMM4 is black. When using two sticks of RAM, it says to install one on DIMM1 & the other in DIMM3 (Makes sense... After all, it's color colored that way).
Well it would not boot. I reseated every component and for HOURS tried almost everything. Finally I decided to place my two sticks of RAM in the first two DIMMS and viola!
I think I will begin this build the same way.

My ipad frequently says "I am not connected to internet" although it is and there is a good signal. after a while it connects regularly. what could be the problem?

You can try these things and see if it helps.
Tap Settings, then tap Safari on the left side. Then on the right side - tap clear history, clear cookies, clear cache. Clear all three. Reboot your iPad. Hold down on the sleep button at the top until the red slider appears and slide to power off. Then hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and the iPad will restart. Launch Safari and see if helped.
If that doesn't help, try this. Tap Settings, then tap General on the left side, then scroll down on the right side and tap Reset, then tap Reset Network Settings at the top. Reboot your iPad as described above. Launch Safari and log on to the Internet. You may have to enter your network password again when you reset Network Settings.
Renew the Lease in WiFi by going to Settings>WiFi>Network Name>Renew Lease. Reboot your iPad and try Safari again.

Wont boot unless clearing cmos

JBAT1
Ok here's the story in full.
Received K8T Neo2-FIR - was completely DOA along with a working 3000 90nm.
Received working K8T Neo2-FIR, got system to post after 5 hours of work (including 1.30 hours to watch Open Range whilst angered).
Post Showed 'invalid bios checksum' etc, the board now has 3.31 bios and still it will not post, will not even boot to be precise. It won't kick in fans etc UNLESS the jbat1 is set to CLEAR CMOS. Then the system works fine other than not retaining any bios settings.
I have now installed Windows XP Pro 64bit along with the 64bit drivers, unfortunately cannot use any MSI tools. I am going to update to the latest RC1 of XP64 pro as soon as Microsoft sort out the error in the download page/server.
Anybody got any clue to solving my problem? Oh and i can't run my Kingmax 3700 in dual channel, infact i dont think i can run 2 sticks in single channel either. (2x512MB).

The PSU is going to be my next purchase, i have witnessed 2 Tagan UO2's explode recently so am going to go with an Akasa 460W. To be honest the current PSU is crap quality but testing the rails and amperes output actually hits 530Watts, on load i doubt it can hit this but still has enough power to satisfty 3xmore drivers and 6case fans in another SocketA machine which takes a lot more power at the cpu.
The ram has been in all possible combinations provided by the book but i can only get it to run 1 stick. I cannot run the LIVE UPDATE tool as im using Windows 64Bit. I've got 1 hour 26mins left on the download for the latest beta so hopefully i can run the tools tomorrow.
I have tried booting the machine etc with all items unpluged and select ones etc but no luck, it will only work if the jumpers are set to clear cmos. Maybe a multimeter on the jbat would reveal whether any current is getting passed through pin 1. Long shot and hopeless i know. Theres probably a reasonabe explanation.
I've now had 3 different Bios errors on post, so i think its just screwed it with the first boot on jumper2-3.
Soft reboots work fine (it hasnt stopped to tell me bios errors) just 'NO BIOS INSTALLED' at the sata raid post screen.

Pavilion p6-2133w - Wont post/boot without clearing cmos first

I really need some advice guys. My dad just recemtly bought this computer from a friend (friend says it had no problems) which could be true.
I did a fresh format after downloading all drivers from HP, installed them all incuding the bios update (which i think is my problem) and now i have to clear cmos every single time before it will boot or even post, if i dont clear cmos the computer does turn on (fans have power) but the monitor stays black. When i do clear cmos the pc boots fine and the only thing i notice wrong is some files wont download thru IE (like adobe flash, says no internet connection when the adobe installer trys to download) and im getting constant sec.certificate display blocked errors thru IE other then that it runs fine.
So im assuming something went wrong installing the bios update, im praying somebody has or even knows what the original bios is supposed to be ? or someway i can fix it. I have since done another format and tried reinstalling the bios update and all other drivers but nothing changes
Any advice, opinions, or idea's would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance
Vito

Clear cmos jumper

P43 neo board (ms-7519)
Could someone confirm which is pin 1 on the clear cmos jumper. From the manual it looks like the pin nearest the heatsink. If this is correct the board was supplied with the link in the clear data position which seems strange to me.
Thanks,
Paul

Jbat1 is the clear cmos jumper, to clear cmos just shift the jumper to 2-3 and remember to switch back to 1-2 after you have clearing cmos, alternatively you can also remove the cmos batt
By default the jumper cap should be at pin 1-2(keep data) if no one has messed with it

KT3 Ultra, have to clear CMOS everyboot?

Hey guys I have a weird problem...everytime (including the first time I installed the hardware) I restart or powerdown the computer, it won't turn on again unless I reset the CMOS by the jumper. I'm thinking this is just a faulty motherboard, but any ideas?

Hi,
I just worked through a similar problem with a KT3 Ultra
MS-6380E board and an Athlon XP 2000+ processor. Every time I booted and configured the BIOS it worked fine until I cycled power. Every time I tried to turn it on - nothing, no fans or anything. I was also thinking bad motehr board, bad processor, bad BIOS, etc. I tripped over an article (I forget if it was here or on AMDs site) that discussed an issue of the motherboard not properly recognizing a processor.
Apparently the MSI board identifies the Athlon processor based on clock speed (someone can correct me here) - when my system booted it was saying I had an Athlon XP 1600+ rather than the 2000+. Anyhow, the solution requires updating the BIOS to the latest rev. What you need to do is :
1. after clearing the BIOS (this needs to be done for about an hour - not mentioned in the manual) power up your system.
2. Enter the BIOS setup and set your date and time only then exit and save your changes.
3. Go through any system install/updates you need to do (disk format, OS load, etc.).
4. Load the MSI live update utility and connet to the Internet.
5. Run the update utility and you will get a selection of results.
6. Run the BIOS update (you will need a 3.5" floppy disk).
7. Following this make sure you also have all of the lates drivers installed.
8. Now your ready for the final test! Reboot and go into the BIOS setup. Set your FSB clock to what it needs to be (in my case 133MHz), exits and save. The system should reboot without any problem now. :D
If you cant make it to #3 you have a different problem than the one I had. If thats the case - Sorry, I don't have any pointers.
Some of this should be in the manual but isn't - Issues of not recognizing the processor, how long it takes to clear BIOS, etc.
Hope this helps

Cleared CMOS with power on!!!

you know that nice big flashy button that says 'clear CMOS' tho only while power is off? .. well i've done it with power on!!!
current system being ...
MSI Eclipse PLUS Ver1.0,
3x 2Gig OCz Tri RAM,
920 i7 CPU,
ATI 4870 X2 GPU,
850W InWin PSU
graphics card was not responding after 2 months working fine, after some other debug attempts ... i pushed the clear CMOS button ... now i'm sitting with a mobo that ... serves me right for leaving RTFM till last!!!
reboots once after (roughly) 10 sec and remains on,
LED status remains at 'FF',
D-LED shows blank display,
all mobo panel button lights (rst, pwr, overclock) remain on,
no communication to graphics card,
status LED is green,
system fans and processor fans are all on,
hdd starts tho no activity is heard.
i've tried ...
different power supplies,
different graphics cards,
different RAM,
taking mobo battery out, uplugging power, removing CPU, removing RAM, .... removing everything and leaving mobo for 24 hours as such.
i've seen that a bios can be loaded from a usb disk? searched MSI website for documentation regarding this tho nothing found ... would it even help?

I think you have a high chance of BIOS corruption. You can try flashing the BIOS again but I do not think it will help much. Your best bet now is to RMA the board.

Clearing cmos

Hi,
my K7T266 PRO (ms-6380) went dead after installing a new cpu; four red led's are shown and the old and new cpu won't do a thing... I understand by clearing the cmos there would be a chance that everything will work again. I read the user's manual and understand how to clear cmos but I don't know what this mean. Can anyone tell me about it ? Which information will be deleted ? ?(

look again into your manual,
just at the first pages with the layouts of YOUR board.
i have a k7t266 pro2 and the jumper is under the battery and above the sys-fan-header.
the way of resetting CMOS (BIOS):
shut down Windows/system,
turn off the mainpower switch (behind the power supply),
then take out THAT jumper AND place that one pin higher.
(jumper will cover the 1st and the 2nd pin)
after 2 minutes,
put the jumper back to his ORIGINAL position.
(jumper will cover the 2nd and the 3rd pin)
then turn on the mainpower switch and power on your system.
PLEASE look into the manual FIRST!
P.S. after doing that, you will be prompt to go to the BIOS or load the BIOS defaults.
choose the option to go to the BIOS, because you will have to set up the settings for cpu and RAM, AGP etc...
