can't even boot Vista anymore

I recently increased the voltage to my memory and now the BIOS doesn't even come up anymore. What can I do?

Re: can't even boot Vista anymore

I did that and it still didn't work. Could I have damaged or destroyed the memory modules by setting the voltage too high?

Re: can't even boot Vista anymore

List your full system specs.

And then tell us what you set the voltage too.

When you removed the battery did you unplug the computer? If not do so and try again
