I built a new system using the GA-EP45-UD3R, a Q6600 processor, and 8 gigs of ram. I overclocked it to 3.0ghz with the default voltage and everything was fine except that the system took a long time to power down after choosing to shut it off (it would log out of windows, monitor would shut off, but the system power would stay on for another minute before shutting down). I decided to upgrade to the F4 BIOS (was on F3) to see if this would make any difference.
The flash went fine and all was well. Booted up the system, loaded optimized defaults and then changed my setting back to where they were before. Ran the system fine for several hours. However, today, I turn on the system and it booted up at 9 X 400. Went into the BIOS and my settings were still the same. Changed it back to 9 X 266 and the system boots up at 9 X 317. Also, the memory is running at 952 (2:3) even though I set it to run at 667.
So basically, the BIOS is ignoring my settings. I've loaded optimized defaults several times, but it still does the same thing. What should I do?
