I recently tried overclocking my 8350 on a fxa ud3 gigabyte motherboard. One part of overclocking was to reset my mb settings. After I did that and change my cpu settings I booted the computer up. It came up with a blue screen saying that it couldnt find a boot device. I didnt even touch my ssd at all and now it cant find it... any help would be amazing. :)

windows will bsod if you change the sata ports from achi to ide or ide to achi or sata. check the sata ports see what there set for. also check that your ssd is on the amd sata ports some mb use 3 party sata chipsets .check to see if your cable is on one of them and the port is turned on in the bios. also some mb if you turned on intel rapid start will change the sata chipset from achi mode to raid.

check in BIOS if there is a timeout setting for the SSD. If there is, increase the time. Also try plugging the SSD into another SATA port.

Did you use some kind of software to overclock or did you overclock directly in BIOS?
