GA-F2A85X-UP4 with A10-5800k APU

I'm having a couple of issues with this board. I have it connected to a monitor via DVI and an a/v receiver (Sony) via HDMI. I cannot POST with the HDMI connected - it will show code 62 on the board. It will POST and work fine with just the DVI connected and once I'm in Windows I'm able to connect the HDMI. I disabled all "HDMI Control" options on the receiver but have not yet connected directly to the TV to see if the issue follows -- just curious if someone else has experienced this.

I'm also having issues with overclocking. I have Corsair Vengeance 2x4GB 1866 memory (PC3 15000) but the memory clock shows as 1333MHz in the BIOS. I am selecting the memory multiplier and using the + key on the keyboard to increase until it shows 1866 as the clock speed. I save & exit the BIOS and experience boot failure and the settings are reverted to 1333MHz. Is there somewhere else I need to be looking or another setting that needs to be modified?

BIOS is currently on F2 revision. There is a BETA version F3j on the Gigabyte site but I didn't know if I needed to update to the BETA version.

not sure what to say about the HDMI issue, but for the ram, usually for 1866Mhz ram, the default voltage wont cut it. that high frequency ram likely 1.65v. if that is the case you'll have to go in to the voltage control in the bios and increase the DIMM voltage. default is 1.5v.

Secondly in the memory settings you'll most likely have to adjust your memory timings, again the sometimes works, but mostly doesn't.

Start with verifying the memory voltage and go from there.

Thanks, I'm going to try that.

The reason I'm posting about the HDMI issue is because I can't find anyone else reporting such a thing and it seems to happen at random times other than boot as well.. A cell phone was connected to the USB port on the top of the case and that triggered a code 62, just seems so random.

I don't have that board so I can't comment or help with those specific issues, but RAM settings are global across all boards, that's why I was able to help with that.
