Title: GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 The system has experienced boot failures due to overclocking.
Post by: Fellshadow on November 30, 2012, 07:11:11 am: Hi everyone,

I just recently picked up this board and some new ram for it (DDR3 2133mhz) and everything was running great. However, I had a brief power outtage today when my PC was still on, and ever since then, when I start up my PC it gives me this error.
I know there is nothing wrong with my parts as everything was working fine until the power went out (and they're brand new). Also, when I check the memory frequency in the BIOS, it seems to be clocking my RAM back down to 1600mhz.

How can I stop this error message and make it clock my ram back up to 2133mhz?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply.
Resetting the BIOS did the trick!
