how to turn off all overclocking on a ASUS (Z77 Sabertooth)

[Chris Gray]

I purchased a Z77 Sabertooth from Asus. I have an i7 (3370) and only one stick of RAM (8GB)

when I run Memtest86+, bad memory is reported.

I assumed a bad stick, so I tried a second of a different brand, then a third.

I would really like to turn off ALL overclocking features on the Z77, to use proper voltages and clocks, etc.

Can someone help guide me into a stable system? I'm happy to lose the performance, very frustrating

Try clearing the CMOS (unplug the power cord and remove the CMOS battery for few minutes).
Do you get the errors with the module inserted in each slot?
