Hi all,

I'm new to this place and this is my first thread on the forum. Have decided to consult you all with the issue I have got with my newly built PC.

The specs are:
Asus M5A78L-M LX with latest BIOS release
2x4 Gb Corsair Vengance 1600Mhz
FX-4100 Black Edition
Coolermaster EVO 212+
500W PSU

I'm running a mild overclock of 4300Mhz with only rising the multiplier, DRAM clock of 800Mhz, Turbo Mode disabled, Unleashing Mode disabled, Advanced Clock Calibration on auto with +4% on all cores, 4 Cores Enabled. Everything else is set to auto.

I can run this overclock on prime95 for few hours without a problem with temperatures around 50 degrees Celsius. But if I leave it overnight turned off almost every time I get a Bios Post message "Unleashing Mode failed, Overclock failed..." Then I'm presented with options so I just go into BIOS, Save&Exit and as if nothing happened it continues to work properly restarting and doing other things through out the day. As I have mentioned before I have Unleashing Mode set to disabled once I have seen this error the first time, but it keeps popping up and don't know where is it coming from.
