I've increased my 8320's clock from 3.5GHz to 4.0GHz for about six months without issues before. Recently, I switched to Windows 10. When I press the restart button (from the Windows icon), my computer stops, but the monitor shows a black screen with 'no signal'. The PC lights are on and fans are spinning, so it seems it's still active. If I manually press the power button to restart, I see an error saying "Overclocking Failed" and prompt to press F1 to run setup. Only this problem appears during a full restart, not when booting normally. The CPU speed is now at 3.5GHz even though the target is 4.0GHz. Appreciate any advice!

After upgrading to Windows 10 and putting the PC to sleep, something went wrong. I tried a few updates and it stopped happening, but I still don’t know what caused it. I’m hoping someone can help me out. Following for interest.
