cmos reset might work with windows updates, that's all. Also, consider adding a restore point so you can revert changes if needed. Since i'm dealing with ddr3 and have some 1600-bin sticks, they're not performing well—they clock in around 3000 or higher, but maybe a fresh setup would help. I guess i could try a different configuration like a triple channel at 2800+ instead of the current 2656.
