In a brand new pc (Asus P5B deluxe, E6700, 3 G, 2hd150G SATA, ATI
1650, 550 watt PW SP not overclocked) I flashed the old bios 614 with
the new one804 via Asus update. Apparently the update was OK as on
other mobos I did in the past. But as I rebooted the effects were:
1)Pc doesn't start unless I turn on the main button on the power
supply;(instead of the normal button on front side); consequently I
have to shut down always using it, if I want to reboot, after.
2)When I boot, appears the bios warning: CMOS overclocking failed:
press F1 to setup or F2 to default (of course I entered the bios and
set for default values, but it's of no use: it ask me again everytime
I boot : F1 or F2. I can use the pc but it's boring).
As no setting was changed in the passage from old to new bios, there
must be something wrong with my PC: Where: in power supply? In RAM
(3gigs only, for winxp of course)? But why it worked perfectly before?
Here my brain really stops. Please anybody cleverer than me can help?

Can you reinstall the old BIOS ?
Did you make a copy of the old BIOS ?

You can try clearing the CMOS. Unplug the computer, before you
attempt clearing the CMOS. You don't want any power present
while doing it. Your user manual will probably have a small
section describing what to do.

If clearing the CMOS does not help, then you'll need to flash
back to the old BIOS version.

If your system worked perfectly before...
then it was a bad idea to reflash your bios...

at any rate you will now have to reflash it one more time
with the *original* bios !
