Is there a way to OC and keep the CPU lowers the clock at idle?
If I change the Clock ratio to any number, the CPU is stuck to the high speed. EIST, speedstep are enabled in bios.

Is there any way to speed up the boot on my GD65? Currently it displays all the post codes on the screen and takes a solid minute to get to windows login.

Start it up, let it get to 55 & restart itself. It will repeat 3 times, then give you the overclock failed message & let you back into bios again.

anyone have info about the debug code error 55?
PC was running fine for 2 days, passed all benchmarks and stability was fine.
Today powering up the PC, and it keeps in boot loop with error 55. I didn't change anything in the bios or add any new components.
RMA time? I gave chance to MSI but I guess they didn't improve them self all that time

55 is a memory error, I've seen it quite a few times when I tried OCing the memory too far, but once I got passed POST with memory settings it didn't stop there when rebooting, just on the first initial POST after changing settings.
When I did see it, I would just sit back, wait for it to reboot itself & it would repeat the boot & fail 3 times, then give me the overclock failed press F1 to enter bios where I could change the settings & try again.

Ram was @ stock speed and PC was not OC'ed. I left the motherboard to auto reboot more than 5 min and nothing. Ended up changing the motherboard and new one works fine till now.

Just went through this and sent the board yesterday. Such a shame that memory oc's are the only one that seem to "brick" the cmos to the point of not being able to release the information, reset cmos. Another poster mentioned the same thing resulting in a RMA. Someone mentioned to turn the computer off, remove the battery, turn power back on, and turning the computer back on. This he called a "hard reset" and was the only way for him to get the board to do what he was asking. Seems logical enough. I didn't give it a chance as I was beyond frustrated and just started prepping to ship the board back. I went through NUMEROUS failed oc's for the processor but I had two fails when trying to OC the memory, the first resulted in a more than necessary attempt to reset CMOS and the second was exactly how you described it. I'm quite curious as to why only with memory.
