Black screen/Overclocking error when waking PC up from sleep (usually after overnight)
Hello.
I recently purchased a PowerSpec prebuilt, G4447.
I've noticed when I put the computer to sleep, and wake it up, it starts to boot up but fails, black screen, and I get an error regarding failing during overclocking/OC.
Is there any steps I can take to troubleshoot this? The PC seems fine when gaming, it's only when I have the system sleeping for more than a few hours where this SEEMS to occur.
Best,
Jeff

Could be memory related. I'd disable XMP in the BIOS, then save. See if it wakes up on the JEDEC profile. We can tweak it from there.

Was this ever resolved? Just bought a G447 and it's doing the same thing. Doesn't seem to matter how long its been sleeping. Happens probably 50% of the time when waking.
