" rel="nofollow - Hi there,

I tried overclocking my FX 8320 CPU with my Extreme 4 Motherboard. However, no matter what OC I select or options I choose, I always get the following message on a black screen with white writing.

"Detected ATA/ATAPI Devices...

The system failed to boot several times before.

You may press F2 or DEL to enter SETUP to reconfigure

Or UEFI will continue to boot after x seconds"

Is this supposed to show everytime I try to OC, it doesn't seem right to me? I've tried lower volts, higher volts, different frequencies but it always comes up.

Is it just telling me that an adjustment has been acknowledged?

I also have 4 x 4GB RAM installed but it is not running in Dual or Quad Channel, only Single.
