I've been reading these forums for a long time and keep seeing people who just go and clear their BIOS when they OC their CPU too far. This is not necessary.
What you have to do is just shutdown your system, then unplug your PSU from power, wait a minute, plug it back in, and turn it on.
It will boot into the BIOS at CPUs default settings, while the settings that you set and saved will be selected. So all you'll need to do is tone them down a bit. This is a great way of recovering from a bad OC, its quick, easy, and you don't have to set all your BIOS settings from the loaded defaults.
