Yeah touch bios is rubbish software. Same goes easytune6. Gigabyte own softwares are the worst I ever seen. I don't use it anymore. I just prefer to use manual setting at the bios, and use hardware monitor.

Might be a good idea to give me a bit more information about your system and how you have it set up. I assume it is the same motherboard, can you remember what things your might have changed or installed on your system round about the time that the TouchBios went fail for you? :) Did you update your BIOS before or after the TouchBios problems started? Which version of TouchBios were you using that did work for you? Try and give me as much information as you can every little bit helps. ;)

Most probably something small I guess. So far I have only every had to use it the once to set everything up and then I left it. But if I can help you sort out your problem then all good.
 
Touch Bios hassle

I have a Z68 UD7 and cannot under any conditions get Touch bios settings to have any effect despite carefully following these instructions... and any settings above 4ghz in the bios (vers F8) cause BSOD's.

Loading the Touch Bios app. takes 30 seconds to 1 minute - something evil about this - often get that stupid .NET Unhandled exception dialogue - what a bummer.

In the time my ud7 has run through just the posting of all the drives and crap let alone actually booting into windows itself the asrock would have booted into windows and I would be using it. I would say about twice as quick at least. this is like going back to an old style motherboard.

Hopefully this will be corrected when Gigabyte finally stop using the AWARD legacy BIOS

Could you give me a bit of detail please, things like what cooler you are using and which version of TouchBios you are using.

http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/utility.aspx I would suggest that you download the latest one from the link above.


With regard to how long it takes to boot into OS.

Here is a video of my wife setting the multi in TouchBios and rebooting once completed. From the moment you press reboot to opening the TouchBios again was about 40's. Not sure how much quicker it can actually be than that. And yeah we own MSI and ASUS boards so I know how long it takes them to reboot too. Please forgive the quality of the vid I shot it from my phone for you guys to actually see how long it takes. Rather than be told how long it takes by others.

hi there, after reading through some of this, i want to try and get my 2600k upto 4.6ghz.....

so far ive set the multi to 40

and set the the multi steps load line to 6.....

this works fine.....

i then tried setting the multi to 46 for 4.6ghz but the computer then just reboots.......

i then get the reboot loop, probably due to the vcore.......

this is now where i get lost............i need in plain english the next steps i need to take as , the guide is very good , but doesnt go into this...any one help?

cheers chris
