Assuming he hasnt burnt out his CPU.... if you remove the CPU and reinstall it, the BIOS should recognize the "major core change" and reset itself to use failsafe settings. Worth a shotyes most motherboards come with a "fail-safe" features that prevent you from frying your computer. however if you do disable them in th BIOS and say your CPU fan dies you will have a burnt computer
