Z87 deluxe infinite loop q codes

Masix
Level 7
Hi
I tried to overclock an Asus z87 deluxe Intel i7 4770k on it. It was perfectly running before the overclock. bios version 1507
I just change the CPU multiplier to 46 without touching the voltage.
At the first boot the win 8 crashed. Then it started an infinite boot crash restart without ever arriving to the bios splashcreen. However the system was beeping all the time in a loop.
I pressed the clear CMOS hoping to reset everything, but the following happens.
System start firing all fans.
Q codes loop on different codes (10-15 repeating all the time).
CPU and dramm led flash alternatively.
Tried to pull out battery and clear CMOS.
How do I exit this nightmare?

Try booting with one ram stick at a time, see if one of them is faulty, look in manual to see which slot is recommended.
Alternatively install new BIOS, or reinstall current, now I´m not familiar with your particular board, but if my older board can do that just with a USB-key, I´d presume yours could too.

@tenblade that was a great idea. The bios update failed, but at least it triggered something and the machine started again. GREAT AND THANKS!

Glad it worked out, Masix. And good luck on your overclock. There´s a lot of reading material here to guide you.
ROG on!
