Hello
Lately I was playing around with memory timings (no ram oc or cpu oc). Today I was checking out the "Quick OC Guide" from Jakob. I started to oc my cpu like the guide explains. When i hit save and exit the bios the pc didn't post, even clear cmos didn't work. So I switched to bios 2 (1.02) to post and boot from usb then I switched back to bios 1 and reflashed bios 1 (to 1.07 beta). I went back in to the bios and set the oc again (4.6 GHz). Now I can post and I ran some stresstest. WEIRD.... I set everything like before and now it works... I guess fooling around with memspeed corrupted the bios...

    same here, sometimes the 1.07 BIOS gets stuck and won't post at formerly known good settings.
     
    any chance you remember which POST code it was halting on? I was oc'ing memory so mine were sooner or later ending up with a POST code 23 lockup and on at least 1 occasion the memory settings were still corrupted even after a full CMOS reset (had to reflash).

    Unfortunately I don't remember... if it gets stuck again I will post the POST code.
