    bios options in Gigabyte motherboard grayed out

    I am using a Gigabyte GA-M69GM-S2H motherboard and I have built a new system recently. After when I went into the Bios setting to check some what are the different options given I noticed that most of the options were grayed out and I am not able to change that at all. So, does anyone how to to access this options which are grayed out in Bios? Thanks

    Can you tell us which BIOS version are you using for the Gigabyte motherboard that you have? I think that the latest bios firmware for the mobo is F6 with a beta version of F7E, if I am not mistaken. Try to flash the BIOS to this version and see if that makes any difference. Also, clear the CMOS battery for atleast 10 minutes and then attach it back again.

    To get access to all the options of the BIOS you will need to enter the BIOS menu and then press the Ctrl+F1 keys on the keyboard together to get full options in the BIOS. For some users the non of the BIOS options was grayed out and for some it happens, this might be because of some strange issue with the board itself. Anyways, if this method is not working also then try a BIOS update and hopefully it will work for you.

    If there is some wrong settings used in the BIOS then it tries to automatically adjusts its option but there could be other issues as well. So what you can do is try to start clearing the BIOS by removing the CMOS battery for atleast 30 minutes. After that put the battery inside and try to run your system at stock settings rather than any overclocked settings.
