Overclocking the central processor of a personal computer can significantly increase the performance of this device. Unfortunately, this kind of procedure sometimes increases the load on the CPU, which can lead to damage to it.
Necessary
- - BIOS access;
- - CPU Core;
- - crosshead screwdriver.
Instructions
Step 1
There are several main methods of disabling overclocking for the central processor and other elements. Open the BIOS menu by pressing the desired key after turning on the computer.
Step 2
Highlight Set BIOS Default or Use Default Settings. Press the Enter key. After a new window appears, press the Y key. This will confirm the application of the original parameters of the computer elements.
Step 3
The disadvantage of this method is that you disable overclocking for all other devices. If you only need to change the parameters of the CPU operation, open the Advanced Setup or CPU Settings menu.
Step 4
Select the menu that displays the parameters of the CPU operation. Go to Overclocking Options and enable Auto or Default.
Step 5
If you did not use the specified overclocking scheme, but adjusted the necessary parameters yourself, change the bus frequency and multiplier values by choosing the original values.
Step 6
In some models of mobile computers, it is not possible to change the settings for the operation of devices through the BIOS menu. If you encounter a similar problem, install any program that allows you to manage the CPU while running on Windows. An example of such a utility is CPU Core.
Step 7
Run this program and set the default values for the multiplier and bus frequency. Reduce the voltage applied to the processor.
Step 8
If incorrect overclocking settings have led to the fact that the computer simply does not boot, you must use a mechanical reset. Turn off your PC and disconnect the cable from the power supply.
Step 9
Disassemble the computer case, thereby gaining access to the system board. Remove the BIOS battery from the slot. Close the contacts and return the battery to its original position. This procedure will completely reset the BIOS menu settings.
