BIOS OC settings work only after a BIOS flash and are not active during the next boot.
BIOS OC settings work only after a BIOS flash and are not active during the next boot.
I've always preferred avoiding forum posts for assistance, but this situation has really annoyed me.
At first, trying to overclock my CPU worked—settings saved in the BIOS but didn’t take effect on the actual system. After some research, I learned I needed to flash the BIOS to the newest version, which I did. That fixed the issue and brought my i5 up to 4.5GHz.
But the next day when I restarted my PC, the problem reappeared, so I had to flash the BIOS again. It stopped functioning on the following boot too...
Thanks in advance.

Check the cr2032 battery on your motherboard. It's there to preserve your BIOS settings when the PC isn't connected. The saving feature doesn't seem to work.
