I have an i5 2500k and a Gigabyte GA-Z77-D3H motherboard. No matter the voltage, the megahertz or any of the other settings my OC always crashes if I try to wake my computer up from sleep. I can set up a perfectly stable OC, restart my computer multiple times without problems and benchmark for hours without a crash. But if I put my computer to sleep and try to wake it up, without fail it will boot loop for about two minutes then pop up a BIOS error screen with an option to restore the default BIOS settings. I don't understand why it does this, and this is a fresh install of windows (fresh ish, reinstalled one week ago). Please help, this is infuriating

It' prob a specific, device that causes the crash, might go to device manager and go to a few of the devices at a time ( maybe 3 ) and go to their properties, select the power management tab and uncheck where it says put the device to sleep - so that/those don't go to sleep, then if it comes out of sleep mode fine a couple times, it may well be one of those, if it still crashes, then can change those back, and try a few more. Once you you are coming out then do the ones involved 1 at a time....if that doesn't find it, give me a yell back

Shot in the dark guess - using or at least have Intel Speed State enabled and using an SSD drive? The tech that allows to come out of sleep faster can also mess with voltage on wakeup causing crashing. Another possibility is your psu is not responding to demand fast enough - what is it and how old? Yet another possibility is mobo adaptive voltage control - turn off in bios - may not be responding correctly due to oc, plus oc are usually more stable with a manual voltage than auto controlled. Any of the green power/eps/speedstep tech can cause this
