More Information

Hey i recently upgraded my BIOS version on my (ASUS M3A Mobo) to v0805 since i bought a new Phenom 9750.

But now when i make any modification in the bios & press F10. the system shuts down completely for 3secs. then starts back up.

Very annoying when your doing OC tests as it takes tooo much time rather than a quick reboot. any tips?
