    Overdrive 3.1 + GD70 not working.

    Ever since I built my new rig I haven't been able to get overdrive to work properly. At first I thought it was the beta build of Win 7 but it's been months since I moved to final release and I still haven't been able to get it to work.

    I don't think my cpu-nb volts are either a) increasing properly or b) reading properly so I'm trying to use overdrive to figure this out but whenever I change a settings no matter what it is, my computer will lock-up and If I have any speakers/headphones connected they squeal like there's no tomorrow. Even if I open overdrive, don't make any changes, and than click "Ok" it freezes.

    I've tried multiple versions of overdrive, as well as multiple installs/os's/bios. This naturally leads me to believe that it's a hardware problem but what could it be? Anyone have any clues!

    I've tried v1.2 - 1.9 and a lot of the beta's and it's a recurring issue which is why I think it's a hardware problem.

    I'm not sure what's causing the problem though.

    happened to me b4 as well.

    when u tried diff version of aod, did u delete d amd folder in program files b4 proceedin w/ installation of another version?

    i must say gd70 isn't really aod friendly, gigabyte 790fxt or even dfi 790fxb is better.

    Not this time but I've installed it on two clean installs and had the same issues arise.

    I just uninstalled and deleted the AMD folder, now I'm re-installing. We'll see if it works.

    1.4b is still my fav bios although it does have a weird SSD issue but doesn't appear to affect real world performance.

    I know that bios works with AOD better than any of the others.

    My AOD was fine and now it just won't open at all :/ I tried reinstalling, might have to try deleting the folding too.
