hey All!

I tried overclocking this morning while following a tutorial and i keep getting a failure its say ''boot failure due to previous change in bios settings''  i tried to go to 3.8,  4.0 ,4.5 ,4.7

none of them work, my specs are,  Gigabyte GA-Z97P-D3,  Intel pentium g3258 and 8gbs Kingston hyper x ram.

Ive also tried updating the bios but that didn't help one bit.

Try clearing the BIOS, and then repeating what you tried earlier... It has a good chance of working.

Nothing to see here ;)

The Problem is that you are probably not adding voltage. Most G3258s do ~ 4.6-4.7/1.35v

Yeah as stated, you need to increase  voltage (Vcore)  too to get any decent overclock.
