Hey guys I need some help. I was messing around in BIOS overclocking. I saved the setting and restarted but now windows will not start up. It gets past the memory test and shows all the devices and then when it should bring up the WindowXP screen with the srolling bar it does nothing just a blank screen. I went back into BIOS a returned all setting to default saved and restarted but still nothing. I tried to start it in safe mode still nothing. Then last thing that I changed was the sdram setting from normal to strong. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I cant remember if my system specs are in my sig but here they are just in case:

PIII 1.13 Tualatin
Tusl2-c 1010bios
256mb Kingmax PC150 cas 3/3/3
VisionTek Geforce3 Ti200
Windows XP Pro
