    Ok try the "long cmos clear"



    1. pull power
    2. pull battery
    3. clear cmos jumper for minimum of 30-60 seconds
    4. replace cmos jumper to normal position
    5. replace battery
    6. replace power
    7. boot to bios and load optimized defaults
    8. save and exit
    9. boot back to bios and now you can change settings to your liking.

    If that doesn't work try a 5 minute clear, 15 minute clear, 8 hr clear, 24 hr clear

    If none of that works, I'm afraid it will be RMA time
