Welp. I tried to raise the fsb frequency from 100 mhz to 125 mhz. I restarted the computer and now it won't boot. The led fan is on, everything is on but the monitor isn't picking up a signal. How bad did I f*** up? And is there any way to fix it?
 
On the motherboard there is a watch battery. Switch the back of the power supply to off (O), and then remove the watch battery from the computer. This will effectively reset the bios. Place the battery back in after a few minutes. This will allow you to boot again.

There may be a much easier way to do this. If you could provide your system specs (motherboard is most important), there may be more effective and easier steps I can provide.
 
I tried messing with it and removed the ram sticks and put them back in and it seemed to work. When it booted it told me I had a boot failure and that I needed to load the optimized bios defaults. It booted back into Windows 10. Is there any way to overclock the apu a8-7600 or no? My heart dropped when it turned on, I was literally about to freak. No more stupidness from me.
