OC Profile.

bash25 · 29 Sep 2009 at 10:15

Hi Guys,

Can someone assist me, as I want to know how to backup the OC profile, which was save when I brought *OVERCLOCKED* Intel Core i7 920 D0 Stepping (SLBEJ) 2.66Ghz @ 4.00GHz Max / Gigabyte EX58-UD5 Intel X58 Motherboard / Patriot Viper 6GB DDR3 PC3-12800C8 1600MHz DDR3 Bundle - which was overclocked to 3.8GHz.

I would like to save these settings to a usb drive.

Thanks in advanced.

Bashy.

Theyre saved on the actual BIOS chip, afaik theres no way to save them to USB as its an entirely different system, you could write them down if you really wanted, but theres no way your BIOS should ever lose them really

Thank 95thrifles.

The reason is that I wanted to play with the settings to lower temps and me not able to remember what I changed.

Will I guess the easiest way around this is that I will take photo's and put this data into excel for my reference.

as I say the settings will be saved in the OC profile, so if it goes wrong you can load the original profile from within the BIOS anyway

On the BIOS you can press F11 (or something similar) to save a profile to the BIOS and name it. You can create a few of these so every time you want to use certain setting you can just choose you which setting you want. On my motherboard i think it's something like F10 to save a certain settings to BIOS and name it and F11 to load it. Can't exactly remember but it's something similar.

You can backup/restore BIOS settings from a USB key.

At the bottom of the Save/Load CMOS screen is an option "File in HDD/FDD/USB", choose this and type a name to save or load settings.

Ruskie. You are a star mate. I reason for me backing up the profile made by overclockers is that my pc keeps crashing and I have only had it for a week. So I might as well try and overclock it myself, so that I can learn to overclock it myself (Well try anyways).

if your bundle isn't working properly you should contact Overclockers and get some help
