Overclocking failed message on Asus motherboard

    Approximately 10% of the time I get the following message on boot: "Overclocking failed Please press F1 to enter Setup". It's an Asus M5A97 R2.0 and an AMD FX6300.

    At that point, entering the BIOS and hitting Exit and Discard changes boots the system normally.

    The system is not overclocked, in fact in the BIOS settings it's on power saver/quiet profile. I don't want nor need it overclocked (in fact, quiet is my highest priority).

    Any advice?

    If you have the eco saver mode enabled its possible its reducing vCore too far and preventing post. Cycling through the bios causes a second attempt and things are then just stable.

    Put it on Auto/normal across the board and see what happens.
