Your video is definitely a lifesaver. I am not an advanced tech savvy person. I went into my bios. Tried to change the graphics settings because it's the AMD Ryzen 5600G and not all of the ram is showing in my system and after I did that my monitor would not register any graphics and would shut off and I couldn't get my monitor to wake up turn the system off, turn the system back on still the same thing. But now that I know that MSI and any line of MSI motherboards, my motherboard is the MSI b450 tomahawk Max can be reset. It's a lifesaver. It restored everything on my system back to the way that it came. I nearly bought a new motherboard just because of this and I have since canceled that order cuz now I don't need to change it now. I've learned something new, but these types of videos are very important for people like me who only know the basics and are not knowledgeable about advanced technology.

As I was saying in my comment about not all the ram is registering in my system I had a 3400 g which also didn't show all of the ram was being used but now with my 5600 g it's still not showing all as used. Is it possible for you to make a video explaining and showing how to optimize the BIOS so that the computer system shows all the ram is being used. My system shows 24 GB installed but says 19.9 GB usable.

So I did a thermal paste replacement on my Dell Optiplex 3020 MT. Only things I changed was cmos battery. Motherboard shoes red light doesn’t blink and power supply shoes yellow on the back but doesn’t blink. Everything works fine before I took it apart. I made sure everything is correctly connected to the motherboard tightly and it is but it still won’t boot up. The power button won’t turn white but when I plug in the psu cord the cpu fan turns on and spins. I did the jumper and cleared cmos multiple times. I am having a headache atm..

Mike, if you have already upgraded the BIOS, won't you have to go back and do that again since the motherboard presumably returns to what it was like coming out of the factory or is it only the custom settings you've made to the BIOS which are returned to factory defaults?

G'morning Mike. I would need to reset before trying this...if I try this. (dadgum curiosity) So I have 32g 2666 (19-19-19-43) 2x16 (GSkill Aegis) laying around from a previous system. Also have 32g 3600 (16-18-18-38) 4x8 (Corsair Ballistix) in my current system. If I could get them to play together nice,...I have 4 slots...would 48g at slower speed be better than 32g at faster speeds? CPUZ shows a timing table for the 3600 to match the 2666 (19-19-19-43) Reset and just plug them in, let the board sort it out or will I need to fiddle with stuff in the bios?

ASRock B550M/ac...XMP set to auto. (Most things set to auto) I thought it would use the cl19 of the Gskill. As far as "better" than 32g at 3600 I don't know yet. Right now I have my browser open, Photoshop with a 4K image, Daz Studio, processing a 4K 3D image, and HWinfo running...says I have 38G free. Edit, I gained 452 points in CinebenchR23.

Recently built a new PC and it would not boot at all. Made sure all connections were correct and tight....still no boot. Removed CMOS battery and waited two minutes, shorted the clear CMOS pins, reinserted CMOS battery and it booted! So even if your installed a brand new motherboard, first thing you should do is follow the procedure to reset the BIOS by clearing CMOS. (And if it still won't boot, replace the CMOS battery with a new one)

Hey! I have been dual booting windows and different Linux systems. Now I just have pop os and windows installed, but absolutely anything I try, I cannot delete the ghost entries from UEFI BIOS. So I figured if i reset the NVRAM by taking off and putting back on the cmos battery, that would propably fix the old ghost entries. My question is: do I risk the windows boot manager so is there a possibility that i brick the current system completely? :D EDIT: Now reading more it probs would not brick the windows boot or delete any ghost entries either..? Conflicting info because some source says the entries are in NVRAM.. :D

What im trying to do is actually the complete opposite of this, im trying to replace my CMOS battery and preserve the bios settings. I've searched up about this and most results say that i should change it while my pc is turned on. I however also found that you can retain bios settings as long as you dont take more than 1-5 minutes while the old cmos battery is removed. I prefer the latter method but what do you think? Also are there any other precautions to take before doing so? (like pressing the power button or touching the case to remove static electricity)

Also the CMOS data gets lost/corrupted every time the PSU is switched off/on (looks like the CR 2032 batt no longer sustains CMOS, even it's brand new giving full 3V). At start it displays "CMOS CHECKSUM ERROR". Moreover, when I put it into sleep mode from the OS and later try to wake it up it won't and the CPU fan starts spinning with full speed.

"CMOS" isn't actually a thing on modern motherboards (UEFI instead stores settings in flash storage, next to the UEFI code itself), and it's up to motherboard vendors to emulate a CMOS reset when a battery removal is detected - not all boards do this. Look for an "NVRAM clear" or "BIOS reset" jumper or button on the board instead, which is actually meant to actively reset your BIOS settings.

Hey I did this for my Asrock ab 350 pro 4 motherboard. But the BIOS version is still showing up as the latest version what am I doing wrong?

@mikesunboxing 7 ай бұрын

resetting the CMOS doesn't change the BIOS version, just resets to the default configuration settings of that bios version

I have a question does it reset your bios update because I need my bios up date to recognize my 14th gen? Thanks

@mikesunboxing 3 ай бұрын

it resets the bios to the defaults of the installed version, it doesn't downgrade it

Yeah dude this literally resolved my issue.. I had my pc really acting up (file icons missing/ full screen video playback off centered / ect) & I went to tryn system restore & it just stayed stuck & forced me to hard reset… after that I had a pc that wouldn’t boot up or even show the f2 options on startup it was just the intel screen and that’s it… I thought i was seriously going to need to buy a new pc … until I tried this method & I actually got my computer back up & didn’t even have to install windows again either!! 😊

the battery is removed to allow the cmos settings to be erased. The battery can allow the cmos to retain info during power off
