i was trying to OC the Cpu through Oc genie and i did this by turning the PC off, pressing the OC genie button and turning the PC back on. Upon turning it back on i lost my HDMI signal, and after about 5 seconds PC rebooted and is now STUCK at a error code 55 in the Debug Led indicator.

WHAT DO I DO :(

For an unknown reason, it seems to havee fixed itself!

All i did was goto my other BIOS (Multi Bios Switch ;) ) and stayed on that for a while and went back to the previous failed BIOS and it booted!

Now is this likely to be a permanent FIX? Will this happen again..? Can anyone tell me what caused it and Finally Should i RMA the MB and get a new one..? *i'm still under cover*

I had the same problem last night!

FIX: Switch ram slots to 3&4 and boot up!

This should now boot to bios, it will take a moment or 2 if it is the first proper boot

errr...its not a bent pin or the CPU socket. It was related to my XMP RAM. when i used OC genie it would automatically apply the XMP setting on my RAM sticks On to 2133mhz BUT the problem was that Corsair had flashed the wrong cas timing onto the RAM. it should have been 9 but they flashed a 7. that was the cause for my boot loop. once booted i applied default and then manually OC'd RAM to 2133.
