I'm not sure if this is related to overclocking, but I'm pretty sure it is. I just got some parts for a computer and I built it yesterday. Here are the parts

p4 2.8c
p4c800 deluxe
2 x 512mb pc3700 twinmos
2 x 80gb wd se hard drives
audigy 2
prometia cooling
radeon 9800 pro 128mb

Okay I built the computer yesterday and everything worked fine. I was overclocking it and I got it up to about 3.66ghz at 1.75vcore and 2.85vdimm with 260fsb with 5:4 divider I believe? I'm not sure I think it was between 260 and 270. Anyway it was working fine, until today. Today I left it running planetside and when I came back, it seemed like it crashed. And now when I power on it doesn't do anything except power on. It doesn't boot up and no output to the monitor. What do you guys think happened?

Did you try clearing the cmos?

Power down, as in turn off psu or unplug.

Clear CMOS using the jumper, and leave the jumper in the CLEAR position for several minutes.

If that doesnt work, try removing and reseating the battery. Better yet, try checking the volts on that thing. Sometimes they can come from the factory below specs.

Wouldnt be a bad idea to rip out yer components and test them one by one on another board. Start with the cpu, ram first.
