Intel Extreme Utility: Undervolt Protection?

_Stuart_

Installed the new version of Intel Extreme Utility (from a third party as Intel STILL has the incorrect link).

The version I had been using was great, no issues (why did I change!!!!!)

This version will only work if I set Undervolt Protection to ENABLE in the BIOS.

Previous version worked fine with BIOS set to Auto.

Naturally setting this to ENABLE now prevents me from undervolting which is the ONLY reason I use this software!

Please not.  No changes to my BIOS were made.  Every thing else is the same as when I used the previous version (sadly deleted (no clue what version it was) or I would have re-installed it).

You have to keep the protection off but disable "intel visualization technology" in the bios and everything should work. It was in the advanced tab for me on msi.

Are you referring to Intel Virtualization Technology? I don't seem to have in my Asus z690 bios or heard of Intel Visualization Technology.
