I've never posted here but I had a problem that seems to occur frequently here - the loss of overclocking in bios due to ME corruption.

Thanks to your instructions and help on other posts, I managed to sort it out in no time.

Pinmod in only 3 attempts and I was back up and running. Thankyou.

Had a z77 ASROCK Pro3 board and if anyone else finds this post and has the same issues, all I did was. -

1. Update Bios to the latest version
2. Update ME firmware to 8.xx.xx.xx for z77 boards
3. Pinmod - Used thin wire from hardware store held in position with pliers
4. If Pinmod was successful a bios like screen appears saying ME is being restored.
