More Information

Made a thread about problems i had with my motherbord (EP45-DS4P) in the gigabyte section, yet once i Flashed my BIOS and updated it, i get this problem.

Once i turn on my PC, it will restart about 3 times before finally working. If i go into the BIOs after it finally boots successfully, it tells me that my overclocking has failed and caused problems with booting.

EXCEPT, i have not overclocked anything on my motherboard, all the CPU/RAM settings are default and on "auto".

Why would it be telling me my overclocking settings are wrong?

Also as a side not, i flashed it correctly using Qflash in BIOs, not in windows.
