SO the motherboard im using is the H81 PRO BTC, with an i7 4770 and 16GB DDR3 Corsair Vengance Ram. When i turn on the system, it boot cycles twice before going into bios. To fix that, i changed the ram to xmp and ddr3 1600 instead of the default 1333, and disabled boot failure guard, as well as put the ssd which windows 10 is on, as the boot drive. However, when i take out the power cord and plug it back in 10 seconds later, all the settings are at default, causing the boot cycle to happen again.
I also just updated the bios to the latest version, but this problem has been happening before and after the update
Any help would be greatly appreciated
