DS4 not holding overclock settings?

Simmy · 29 Oct 2006 at 09:28

Current setup;
E6300 @ 3.35ghz
Gigabyte DS4 with F6 bios
G Skill 6400
7900GT

I overclocked the cpu to 3.35ghz yesterday and the computer ran solidly all day. I shut the computer down for the night and it shutdown without any trouble. But this morning, my computer booted up with stock settings :confused:

I didn't switch it off at the mains or anything like that, so I don't see why it should have lost the settings? It's really frustrating! Does anyone know what's happening?

Try lowering o/c to something like 460fsb....mine has no prob,s starting from cold At that speed...if you wish to run higher that's one thing you'll have to get used to is to enable o/c from cold.

Are you using EastTune or the BIOS? If it's EasyTune you have to save your overclock settings then set ET to load the saved settings at reboot. Right-click on the tooltray icon to get that option.

I'm using the BIOS

It seems to reset no matter what overclock I have! :confused:

Have you upped the Vmch + fsb also.. if not try +0.10 on each.

Yep, they're set at +0.10. We'll see what happens tomorrow morning.

id the BIOS isn't saving at all then you should need to set the time again which would indicate a duff battery.
