IVIYTH0S Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 I haven't been able to fool around with it since I had to goto work but this morning when i got up my computer was in a reboot loop. So I eventually calmed it down and booted to windows which had windows saying "resuming windows" meaning that it went on hibernate without asking me (which I usually forget to disable whenever I reinstall Windows, and usually has my computer in reboot loops when I wake up). Though now I cannot run my overclocks anymore, even after i restarted the computer correctly. It will only run stock clocked again. I wish I could stress test it but I can't enable my OC's without it rebooting like 3-4 times and then defaulting my settings. I think it may be my memory settings because it posted for a second after setting my timings to auto but then rebooted and defaulted again. I wasn't sure if this has happened to anyone before. I haven't been having any other issues with stability for many months, I was going to blame win 7 for any issues that've been occurring but since the computer isn't booting outside of windows than it must be a hardware issue. Maybe my processor is starting to kick it, I'll run some stock speed stress tests when I get home. Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

IVIYTH0S Posted April 3, 2009 Posted April 3, 2009 Well I have the 4Ghz back but it's definitely memory since I had to auto my timings again <_<. And here I though I was free of the manual timing instability curse lol. My computer seems just as stable/fast as before so whatever, I'll keep the auto timing setting for now (CPU-Z is saying my timings are at 5-7-7-20 right not but everything seems nice and snappy as usualy with the "Turbo" setting still enabled in the bios) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebarone Posted April 4, 2009 Posted April 4, 2009 So you absolutely cant set your timings manually, not even to 5-7-7-20? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
razor Posted April 4, 2009 Posted April 4, 2009 I'm sure you already have - but did you make sure you're feeding the RAM enough voltage to run @ the manual timings? it's happened to me when I've had to reset to "optimized defaults" and then re-OC I'll forget to adjust the vDIMM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted April 4, 2009 Posted April 4, 2009 So you absolutely cant set your timings manually, not even to 5-7-7-20? hmm I can try that I suppose, good idea I'm sure you already have - but did you make sure you're feeding the RAM enough voltage to run @ the manual timings? it's happened to me when I've had to reset to "optimized defaults" and then re-OC I'll forget to adjust the vDIMM nah I'm pretty sure they're at 2.3v (and I think these are 2.1v or 2.2v sticks, and technically they're underclocked since they're only at 1000mhz). I'll double check though, I didn't revert the optimized settings since I updated the bios months ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted April 4, 2009 Posted April 4, 2009 k I set the settings back to optimized, rebooted and then set all my crap back. I found a setting where the system would halt on errors so I disabled that haha. seems to be working fine now :thumbs-up: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebarone Posted April 4, 2009 Posted April 4, 2009 (edited) Just for future reference, whats the name/location of the setting? (if you answer "BIOS" I'll be insulted ) Edited April 4, 2009 by ebarone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted April 4, 2009 Posted April 4, 2009 Just for future reference, whats the name/location of the setting? (if you answer "BIOS" I'll be insulted ) it's in the tab where you change the time and all, with the floppy drive setting and it should be at the bottom. I think it's like "Standard bios settings" it's about the advanced bios settings tab where you'd change drive boot order. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
