Hello, I tried to overclock my APU Amd athlon 5350 2.05GHz for a little more fps in moba games and it worked fine until 2.3GHz(I can go in bios as high as 2.6), after that when I tried to boot I got an error saying that my devices cannot be validated or something similar and didn't boot so I went back to stock frequency but when windows booted it took like 7-10 minutes at welcome screen(I have SSD!)+2-3minutes at black screen+cursor. I tried repair startup, reinstall the drivers but the only thing that worked was reinstalling windows, I didn't try again because I don't want to install it again in case it goes wrong. Is windows 10 blocking me from overclocking, does it show up as different product if overclocked too much and because it was a free upgrade windows stops working?
