Hey. If you use the Latest nTune, i suggest you Re-load the "sysdflt.nsu" file. It's a nTune default profile, and should correct everything.
(I am presuming you do'nt save your updated settings to that default file.)

nTune is bad bad bad, as in "dangerous" bad. Use the BIOS.

same in bios...

nTune isnt bad, its bad if you're a noob at it. And some people have a Brand-specific BIOS, which may mean they CANT Change clocks/timings.
And i kinda forgot to ask, Why did you edit the timings, and why do you want to return them to default?

they are at the default, the mobo can read the timings correctly, thats y i need 2 know which timings to change.

Listen, i seriously advise AGAINST changing RAM timings. They only slow other things down. Its a scale. Fast here, Slow there. Just leave them be.

ok ok, lets not call any one here n00b or noob or nub or any variation of the word. It is true that it is safer to change settings RAM and CPU related in the BIOS and it is safe to change GPU and HDD setting when your OS is loaded. If you change this in BIOS then if something goes wrong the computer has a chance to stop it if you screwed up before you load anything. if you do this when your computer is already loaded your computer cant stop anything if you screw something up. That goes for CPU and RAM. For GPU and HDD the things you need to change them with arnt in the BOIS so you need to load up the OS anyway.
