Hi all,
I have an msi z87 gd65 motherboard paired with an i7 4770k. Now, after a failed overclock attempt, my system is having troubles booting into windows. The system posts just fine, but gets hung up at the windows logo when windows first boots. A friend of mine suggested clearing the CMOS via jumper method. After reading up a bit on resetting the CMOS, most of my sources say that resetting the bios to default settings is equivalent to clearing the cmos via the jumper method. Is the jumper method better for clearing the CMOS than resetting everything to factory defaults?
Thanks for reading!
