Overclock Not Applying

Hey everyone. I've been having some trouble recently with my overclock that's been working for the last couple years. I'm setting the overclock in the BIOS , but it isn't being applied in windows, it's only applying the normal boost clock. On top of that, it appears to only be boosting ONE core. In task manager, it shows up as 3.6GHz, in CPU-Z it's 3.8GHz on one core and 3.6 on the other 5, and in RealTemp they all show as 3.6GHz. I've been using this same overclocking profile for a couple years and haven't screwed with any settings recently.  I've also tried making a new profile to no avail. My RAM overclock is working fine, though.  I have had to reseat my CPU a few times since it gets jostled when I have to transport it to and from school, but its worked fine after being reseated until now. Anyone have an ideas as to whats happening/ how I can fix this? Thanks!

Edit: before anyone suggests this, I have already set power settings to high performance, didn't change anything

yeah Intel broke Boradwell-E's overclocking some time ago in an attempt to fix "security issues". You'll need old OS and BIOS to fix the problem

Wait seriously?? So I have to reinstall an older version of Windows to actually overclock my CPU now? And just hope it never updates?

I managed to fix it by updating my motherboard's BIOS! They had an update that patched the microcode iasues, we're back up and running now!
