Hi everyone,
My PC has been working fine for months since i got it, but when i restarted it yesterday the bios was suddenly (partially) reset. Time and date was OK but custom RAM settings where changed.
I set the bios to my preferences again and tried to replicate the problem -> first reboot, all OK -> power switch/cord off, bios reset. The PC starts but doesnt initiate the monitor (no output) and after a minute or so boots regularly but with old bios settings, when i then manually go into BIOS it said it was reset.
Ofcourse the first thing i tried was to replace the CMOS battery (twice) and check the jumper (also OK) but no difference, then i decided to update the bios from F42g to F50.
Now when i cold reboot it also resets the time and other custom settings (yet not the date and also not my boot preferences). Other than that, when everything has been set as before and i run a performance test the PC performs as good as it did several months ago, so no performance issues.
Ofcourse its workable but rather annoying and simply put... something is not right. Nothing changed in the period before this issue came up and since i got the PC i never even opened the case. (A windows update was done, but could anyone explane how this could effect the MOBO?)
Other than that, in the beginning i did have some RAM instability issues because it was set to 3200 (MEMtest showed me a big red list) but this was fixed after setting it to 2933.
Also had issues with a strange OC of the CPU, somehow it overrided installed software but after a reinstall of windows this was fixed aswell.
Last thing... I cant remember i ever saw the Aorus eagle on boot on this PC ever, but now i do (perhaps its just between my ears though)
