After I updated my BIOS(to support ivy bridge) I've been getting really weird problems.
The first problem is I can't restart my PC from windows. Once I press restart it logs off, goes to the windows is shutting down screen, then to a black screen. It gets stuck at the black screen. I have to do a manual restart to restart my PC now.
I tried sitting at the black screen for 10 mins, but it still wouldn't restart.
The second problem is 10 mins ago I was having freezing issues. On Firefox, flash would keep crashing over and over again. Then Firefox crashed, then I opened the Windows control panel, and then Windows froze completely.
These are some weird issues. How can any one these issues be related to updating a BIOS? I reset my BIOS settings before updating it.
I changed my RAM from 1333 to 1600(it's original speed) and the same problems still occur.
My motherboard is an Asrock Z68 extreme 3 gen 3.
