CPU OC Back at Default after BIOS Update?

[TheCookieGuru]

Hello folks,

 

I had my i5 4690K Oc'd comfortably @ 4.3GHz 1.2v. I updated the AMI BIOS to 2.8 and when it was installed and everything, I realized all the OC's (CPU + RAM) had been set to default! Naturally, I loaded my OC Profile, but when I clicked to load it it said: "WARNING!!!The SETUP data is not equal to the HOLE,So can not Load User defaults!"

 

So then I said I'd re-OC my parts. RAM first. So it set it to: 2133MHz 10-11-10-30 @1.67v as it was before. Booted into Windows fine.

I restarted the system, went to my CPU Core Voltage and set it to 1.2v, then went to the CPU Ratio, typed in 4.3, and it just flashed back to AUTO. I have an MSI Z97 Gaming 3. I also tried everything again after installing the BIOS version I was on before, 2.7. 

 

What should I do? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for all your help.

 

I did a bit more research and found you have to use the +/- keys. I was using the keys next to the numbers above the F (F1, F2) keys. I actually had to use the +/- buttons on the num pad.

4.3 as the ratio ? shoudn't it be 43 ?
