Problem summary: I have a problem with my BIOS. The motherboard lowers the memory frequency after the power has been unplugged. The problem does not occur when the system has been shut down and started while the power has been plugged. I have tried changing the battery but it didn't help. I think I have found a bug in the F10 version of the BIOS and it may also be present in version F8. System configuration: Motherboard: GA-EX58-UD4P rev 1.0 BIOS version: F10 Processor: Intel Core i7 920 2.66 GHz Memory: OCZ DDR3 1600 MHz 3 x 2GB (OCZ3P1600LV6GK, CL 7-7-7-24, DRAM voltage 1.64 V) Graphics card: Sapphire Radeon HD4870 1GB GDDR5 Operating system: Windows Vista 64-bit SP1 Power supply: Corsair 650W Detailed problem description: When using optimized defaults, the memory frequency defaults to 1066 MHz, TRAS to 16 and DRAM voltage to 1.5 V. After manually changing memory settings to the recommended settings, i.e. frequency 1600 MHz, TRAS 24 and DRAM voltage 1.64 V (actually 1.65 V), system boots fine if the power has not been unplugged between shutdown and startup but if system is booting when the power has been unplugged the motherboard states "Bios recovered after overclocking / voltage adjustments" and the memory frequency is set back to 1066 MHz. The problem occurs in version F10 of the BIOS (I have tried F10d and F10h). I don't remember if it happened in F8 but now I have reverted to F7 and the problem is gone. Please verify if this is a bug and if it will be fixed in the final version of F10. Regards, Mattias |
