Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H WB Wireless Card Driver Will Not Take
Jul 25, 2012The Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H WB comes with a Wireless Adapter/Bluetooth PCIe card.
Atheros AR5BWB222. Gigabyte calls it a GC-WB300D
The driver is being reported as having an issue by a splat in device manager with the following message: Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device. A recent hardware or software change might have installed a file that is signed incorrectly or damaged, or that might be malicious software from an unknown source. (Code 52). The Card works fine in another system that also runs Windows 7 x64 Pro.
I have called Gigabyte, uninstalled and the reverse in safe mode also. Done everything I know. Why it works in one system and not this one is the key. Once it was seen to work on another system Gigabyte tossed me into the ditch.
I have tried drivers from the boxed CD and their site. The Bluetooth side of the card which uses its own drivers is OK.
Windows 7 X64 Pro SP1

Dec 8, 2009I noticed your saying or whatever it's called at the bottom of your posts. What is "overclocking"? Does it speed your system? I have a XP Pro laptop that needs speed badly. It only has 1GB RAM, and it dual boots with Win 2K Pro, a slow startup system. Tell me more about it.

Mar 1, 2011I am thinking of overclocking my current cpu therefore I have got my self a new heatsink and fan. However I am kinda of an armature so I am worried replacing the heatsink. The only problem is that I don't have any cleaner to fully clean the old thermal paste so I wanted to ask is it recommended that one should clean it properly and if so can i use a white spirit to remove the old layer of thermal paste. Please post your suggestion or I will have to wait another few days for the alchol based cleaner

Jun 14, 2011Will I actually gain anything out of overclocking an AMD 5770? What's the easiest, most trouble-free way of doing it? I'm thinking AMD overdrive in CCC and letting it automatically detect my settings.
Not sure if it helps but I can turn my fans on my case (Antec 900) up high, if that may help with heat. I've also overclocked my CPU from 3.0ghz --> 3.4ghz and it runs fine so far.

Nov 4, 2009I just got into windows 7 around 2 weeks ago as almost the same time as I got my new rams, OCZ Dual Channel Gold PC2 8500-5-6-6-18. Before getting time, I've tried some overclock but it never showed in windows but right after I got them, I pushed the FSB to 266( running E5200 2.5ghz) to try to match the rams speed. My question is: Is there a reason why windows only shows it when my FSB is at 266, otherwise at 240, it doesn't show but only in CPU-Z.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow To: Overclocking Your AMD Processor ?
Feb 23, 2009Tom’s Hardware readers know all about overclocking, of course. In fact, many processor and graphics card reviews would be deemed incomplete without coverage of overclocking potential. Indeed, articles such as the System Builder Marathon series have a long history of specifically valuing performance achieved through overclocking rather than just through stock performance.
If you already consider yourself an enthusiast, pardon a bit of background here--we'll get into the nitty-gritty technical stuff in just a second.
What exactly is overclocking? In a nutshell, the term is used to describe running a component at a higher speed than its specification in an attempt to increase performance. Various computer components can be overclocked, including the processor, memory, and graphics card. And the degree of overclocking can include anything from simply procuring small gains from an inexpensive component all the way to seeking a level of performance way beyond what could even be purchased at that point in time.
PC Doesn't Boot After Too Much Overclocking
Sep 8, 2012I love games, but what i mostly love about them is their beauty, the graphics and that realistic crap, But if i Play games like Skyrim or L.A. Noire, i get Lag, (Only on Highest Settings)
Heres some of my specs:
Dual GeForce GTS 450s I also have SLI for the 2 cards (are there very expensive SLI bridges that can boost my performance?) 16GBs of Ram (4x8gb) Asus Rampage IV Extreme Motherboard Intel i7 CPU 3.6GHz And 2 Shitty Hard Drives (1 around 350gb and 2nd around 120gb) I have about a 900Watt powersupply that handles crap fine, The Hard drives are both old and slow, im not sure if they are bringing my performance down
So one day, i decided to do some overclocking, i started up the BIOS and i overclocked shit to the max, but then i clicked save and exit and my PC was basicly like this:
I push power button: PC turns on for 20 secs, then turns off i wait about 4 secs and PC starts again, i wait another 15-20 secs and PC turns off again, i wait and nothing happens, The if i push power button again it all repeats,
Basicly after Overclocking my PC doesn't Start, My problem isn't the PC not starting because i can fix that with a awesome reset button on my motherboard,
What i want is to be able to do Overclocking without having my PC restart itself and not manage to stay on for half a minute
NOTE: I reset my motherboard and went into BIOS again, and i had everything on default which works fine, and then i set a few things higher, nothing much, just things that would add a very small amount to my FPS, but still the PC decides not to work!
NOTE: I still had this problem back when i had a single graphics card and about 4gbs of ram,

Overclocking Athlon II X4 Chip
Oct 9, 2009I just wanted to post up my results for OCing the new Athlon II X4 620 chip. I purchased it last week from NewEgg.com and received my cooler a couple of days ago. I took some time today to play with it a bit to see what I could squeeze out of it ...
Athlon II X4 620
Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro 7 Rev. 2 cooler
Bus : 270MHz
Multiplier : x13
HT/NB Multiplier : x8 (default is 10)
HT/NB MHz : 2160MHz
Memory : 900MHz (x3.33)
CPU : 3.510MHz
CoreV : 1.45v
Overall I am very happy given I only took about an hour to tweak things in the BIOS. The stock speed is 2.6GHz, and I plan to get it to 3.6GHz when I have more time on Sunday.
Not bad for a $99 chip

Nov 24, 2012Toshiba Satelite i7 3D Q series.Crysis & Crysis Warhead tend to overclock my hard drive to the point of freezing both screen & HD. It works on HP Presario 700 fair. Tried everything but, it seems that it wants to use the HD to process and not the pagefile, and that, I can't even find in the files. Everything else runs normal. Checked using Performance program. I know Directx10 is a pain but, my diagnosis using DXDiag says that it uses DX11 & I have a large pagefile?Hid the fxc files for the program so as it could not use them but, again, it still suffers the same fate?

Dec 16, 2012I was overclocking my C2D E7500 and I had forgot to boot into windows every time I just went to the post screen and after I had gotten the cpu to 4Ghz/1.4VCore. I tried to boot into windows and it said that "windows failed to start a recent hardware or software change might be the cause" so I thought that the overclock was to high so I turned it down all the way to default and it still says the same thing the last software I put on it was coretemp to check my cpu temp for the overclock. I don't know what to do I'm kinda scared that I damaged the cpu or worse.

Sep 23, 2011just wanted to ask, if anyone by any chance has tried overclocking the new AMD's A6-3400M QuadCore 1.4Ghz. I've read somewhere that it can easily be set up to go 2.1 or even 2.3Ghz. I have never done any overclocking myself, so I'd also like to know which program or where in BIOS can this be done and are there any risks inlvolved.. its a new laptop so I do go overclocking only if its a safe thing to do.
PS. I've also read that this processor has in reality been underclocked.. to cut on voltage, power consumption, so essentially its a 'natural candidate'.

Graphic card showed erratic behaviour after couple of hours completely died. My system specs briefly:ASUS P5QPL PRO Q9400 2GB CORSAIR DDR2 Dual Channel.Graphic card: SAPPHIRE RADEON HD 6850 GDDR5 1GB.I have done little overclocking on system, some initial steps only. then in catalyst it is set to :Enable Graphic overdrive. 775 MHZ for GPU and 1GHz for GDDR5. these values I got through Auto Tune.

Jan 9, 2013I am currently thinking about overclocking my new processor. To be quite honest I am a little new to overclocking and just wanted to get a few questions answered before I decide to start.clocking from 4.0 GHz to 5.0 GHz. Is this feasible? My main concern is proper cooling and this is where it gets a little complicated, I do not want anything to do with liquid cooling (to be honest, the thought alone is unsettling). Are there any Air coolers that will fit my case (NZXT lexa s) and cool my processor enough to keep it stable at 5.0 GHz? Also, at idle my processor runs at about 12.7 C (around 55 F).

May 13, 2012After a ton of speculation, a bit of denial, and a ton of testing we finally have our answer. The thermal interface material change made by Intel when it went from Sandy Bridge to Ivy Bridge is indeed the cause of the excessive temperatures weve observed while overclocking. The first accusation was made in late-April by Overclockers.com, however proving it wasn't easy. The Japanese division of PC Watch somehow managed to remove the integrated heat spreader from a Core i7 3770k, along with the stock binding and grease. They then proceed to replace it with aftermarket alternatives, and the results speak for themselves.
