    @KTE......Hey have you had any issues with AMD overdrive if the Bios itself is configured for you're overclock? After installing new Bios last night I wated to see if there was any AMD Overdrive support added into the Bios for it so I installed it with optimized defaults set rebooted and upon boot Desktop froze and had to do a manual restart so after about 3 reboots and opening and closing of the program I set the Bios to my O.C Settings and when reaching desktop after a few minutes I open AMD Overdrive and its fine so I start Priming with it open and am on the forum with that in the Back ground and it Blue Screens on me this sh@t has been consistent with this board and this program Lock ups . BSOD while in Windows and just flaky behavior in general

    So the Million dollar question is do any of you have a problem using this program at anything other than optimized defaults set in Bios?

    BTW at no time have I ever used this thing other than to monitor temps or view settings never used it to make changes to Bios what so ever!

    Please give me some feedback on this as I wish to submit info to DFI for Feedback on issues with Bios and I would say this is one of them and its been present since I have owned the Board and I have tried all versions with no success and was currently using Latest Beta.

    Whenever I do anything in AOD except adjust PCI-e Speed, the system hangs, and an ear-splitting high-pitch tone screams out of my speakers. It's a pile of *ahem* if you ask me.
