Motherboard won't load optimized defaults

[LightningZap]

So.

I bought and installed new ram,

My computer is messed up. My temps are broken. My Audio is broken. My fans are messed up. Keyboard is messed up.

 

So I go into my bios click load optimized defaults and save and exit.

 

Go into windows and I can see that it has not reset because my ram speed and CPU OC are still messed up.

 

How do I completely reset my bios? because load optimized defaults is not working

 

CPU 6700k

Motherboard z170-AR

Ram: Tridentz RGB 3000mhz

GPU: EVGA 980 FTW

clear CMOS, remove the CMOS battery.

You could clear cmos by removing the motherboard battery waiting 15 minutes and putting it back in. I would do that as last resort though.

I shorted the motherboard pins, it reset the bios but then when I went back into windows it undid the wipe and reverted to the original settings
