Hi guys! I had to go back to default bios settings after massive fps drops from the overclock on my computer being tweaked a bit wrong.

Heard back from DS about it and gave me settings to change to re-overclock the machine, and now its not even starting up now. I read somewhere that you need to take a CMOS battery off the motherboard but I figured I'd ask around here first..

Whats the best way to get back into Bios when it won't get to windows?

Specs:

Processor: Intel I7 920 2.66ghz
Motherboard: EVGAX58 Micro Eddition SLI
Memory:6GBDDR3
Power S. : 750w

What do I need to do to be able to get back in bios and reset it to default?

on the micro there is 2 reset CMOS switches. One on the back, need a pen to push it in, unplug the PC push the reset a few times, and re-plug it in good to go.  the other reset is on the motherboard, next to the power and reset switches
