Upgrade nightmare!?

Went from an x800 AIW to a x1950 pro and a TV Wonder 650. Got the card installed (much bigger than the X800!) and the software installed. Went for the TV Tuner and installed it and the software. I had previously uninstalled the X800 from Device manager.

Now when I tell Windows (XP Pro) top restart, it will turn off the OS, but will not bring it to POST. I have to push the reset button and it will fire up again. It brings up an error during POST Overclocking failed press F1 to run setup or F2 to load defaults every time I restart espite teh fact that it is already set to default (Before all this I hadn;t had it OC'd either). And my SB Audigy 2 ZS won;t recognize a 5.1 setup, it only has 4.1 and 7.1.

Any ideas? Thanks

Answers:
Isn't 7.1 better than 5.1? Surround sound right? I don't know.

Can you just start and get to your desktop? If you can, uninstall everything you just installed and see if it's okay. Then install each one by one and see if anything messes up. That's the best I can say.
The device manager? Does that uninstall all drivers and soft ware or just disables the device. Uninstall the x1950 Remove all drivers and soft ware for it and the tv wonder. and put the 850 back in. If it recognizes that card then drivers and soft ware have not been uninstalled You must uninstall drivers and soft ware for that card. On the 1950 does that card you have need extra power connection ?or are you adding power on a board connection ? The tv wonder soft ware and drivers is affecting your sound Uninstall it and reinstall audio drivers.
