So yeah I had a problem with my pc where the tower would power up but not the monitor mouse or keyboard, I sorted the problem by holding in the memok button for a few seconds, now I have two problems only one of the two ram sticks are being recognized by the mobo so thats only 2GB instead of 4, and the CPU is running at 3068Mhz instead of the full 3668Mhz can anyone help??

-EDIT so yeah the tow OC profiles in the BIOS arent working as my CPU is only running at 2.67Ghz....can anyone please help??

i would update ur bios to the latest as it fixes a lot of problems.

Any help doing so?, I assume it can be done through the bios?

yeah just stick the bios (1207 is the latest) on a usb pen, go in to the bios and go to tools then to EZ flash 2, then i think at the bottom of the screen it says update bios go to that hit enter then just follow onscreen instructions, it really is easy...

updated the BIOS now it freezes while starting windows 7.....also it appears that its still only recognizing just 2GB of memory instead of 4 in the BIOS aswell as the CPU running at 2.6...

-EDIT
Running OC tuning utility to see if that helps with the CPU speed
got it to 3.25Ghz still not 3.6 and only using 2GB of RAM instead of 4
That was on the BIOS, after second OC utility run according to EVEREST the CPU is running at 3.7Ghz but only 2GB of ram

-EDIT
All fixed now, turns out the memory wasent properly seated And voltages are within safe levels
