Yes, removed everything, placed the computer on a table for better reachability and then proceeded with battery removal.
Like described here: http://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp%3FTID=630&title=how-to-clear-cmos-via-battery-removal. Edited by dNhax - 12 Feb 2017 at 7:07pm |

Sorry, I had to ask
That is very odd. It should clear completely. Then again, my Gaming K6 retains my RGB LED settings when I clear CMOS even when the battery is pulled so I wonder if that could be connected somehow.

I think I will be removing the battery for more than 20 minutes. Linked thread says 4 hours to be sure. Maybe that helps..

If you'd allow me ...........
Grab CPU-z, use those timing that allowed you into Windows and post CPU-z screenies of both sticks Memory and SPD tab. That'll be four pics, or one screen with four instances of CPU-z runing. And, on the opening BIOS page in the upper left, what BIOS revision is the MB currently flashed to? |

Be positive to jumper the CLRCMOS1 in the lower left of the MB when you do this. If not, that will explain the "old" BIOS setting reappearing. This has to be done. And make sure if it's tight in that corner where CLRCMOS is that you DO in fact jumper the pins and not be off one. ie: the pins must be in the holes of the jumper. It's sometimes easy in a tight spot to miss one pin making connection. |

I did as described in the manual. Will be trying again in a few minutes.

I say that because folks with fat fingers like I have it is sometimes impossible to see beyond them to where the jumper is going. That pics "looks' like it is on/over the two pins. Yet there's no reason your old setting reappeared if done proper. That what I was getting at. |
