POST keeps coming up with warning message please help

Hi there,

I've had an overclock running on a machine of mine for some time now and just recently on every bootup at POST it comes up with:

CMOS Settings Wrong

Press F1 to Run Setup
Press F2 to load default values and continue

If I go to F1 into BIOS and quite without saving it just boots into windows, but I have to do this every time I load this machine. Any ideas what I can do to sort this out please?

ASUS board?

There should be an option in the BIOS to disable the F1 warning IIRC.

Yeah It's ASUS P5KC!

I'd try going into the BIOS and doing a save and if that doesn't work then reset the BIOS to defaults, save and see if that clears the message. If it does then redo your overclock and hopefully everything should be fine.

Did as you said and no problems. Just went in and save/exit and no more messages. Nice and simple. Cheers!
