Problem with RAM overclocking
Problem with RAM overclocking
I'm really worried about this situation. I recently attempted to increase my RAM speed from 2666MHz to 3000MHz, but when I tried to start the computer, the monitor turned on without displaying anything. Could reinstalling Windows from a bootable installation help me get it working again?
No, consider resetting your BIOS. What type of motherboard do you have? Does it include a BIOS reset feature?
If not:
Disconnect your PC from the power supply completely. Find the battery on your motherboard (the small 3V cell). Remove it and keep the power button pressed for 30 seconds. Release the button and reinsert the battery before plugging the PC back in. This should refresh your BIOS settings, restoring RAM to default speeds.
There is nothing to worry about, simply shut down your computer overnight.
It's fine, I've had a similar issue before. I increased my 9700k to 5ghz but adjusted the voltage too low, which prevented it from powering up. After turning everything off, removing the battery for a short time, and putting it back in, the optimized settings were restored. It's not a major concern, and I think this won't happen again.
I recently changed the frequency of my 3600mhz trident z royale ram from 3200mhz to 3600, but it wouldn’t post. I reset the motherboard as instructed and now it boots to BIOS with the post code A9, which was the previous issue. My friend resolved it but didn’t explain the steps. It seems the problem was in the settings preventing booting, so he turned it off and it worked. I have an Asus ROG Crosshair VIII Hero motherboard.
