I wanted to set up RAID on a few drives I just bought and when I went to the UEFI to set it up after a few seconds it froze and I had to hard reset my PC. I tried again and it did the same thing. My PC can still boot, after it did I came here to see if anyone could help. The only program I've recently downloaded that might be connected is Glary Utilities which defragmented my drive the first boot after it was installed. And after that I restarted my computer to go to the UEFI to set up RAID. My motherboard is the ASrock Extreme6, which is not that common motherboard so I hope someone has experience with ASrock's UEFI that can help. (Also the Extreme6 has an external Clear CMOS button and a dual BIOS switch, but I am not familiar with using either so I didn't mess with anything.) The rest of my specs that might be useful are listed below:
-Windows 7 Home Premium
-i7 4770K
-PNY Xlr8 120Gb SSD boot drive
-8GB G.SKILL Ripjaws RAM
-Gigabyte GTX770 4Gb

Thank you so much for the help.

unplug the computer, press the clear cmos button for 10 seconds, see if it fixed it.

I did, and it worked, but only the first time after clearing. I go back in and it will still freeze. I put it on BIOS B to see if the same problem occurs and I haven't run into any problems yet, but I haven't gone back into the BIOS to see if it freezes like BIOS A was.
