Hi everyone I was wondering if you would be able to assist me with this error that I can not solve. As the title states I get an error on boot that says CPU Over Voltage Error and Power Supply Surges Detected. In the BIOS it the CPU Voltages are in the red. Their values are in the image below.
I tried taking out the CMOS battery and putting that back in, along with a few other work arounds but with no luck. Hopefully you can assist me in solving this problem. Thanks ahead of time for your assistance.
Here are the computer specs, it was recently built probably about 6 months ago.
CPU: Intel Core i5-4440 Haswell Quad-Core 3.1GHz (3.3GHz Turbo)

GPU: A GeForce GTX 750 1GB 128-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 FTW w/ ACX Cooler Video Card
RAM: HyperX Fury Black Series 8GB 240-Pin DDR3
HDD: Western Digital Blue WD10EZEX 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5″ Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive

PSU: Rosewill RD600 – Stallion Series 600-Watt Power Supply – ATX 12V V2.3, SLI & CrossFire-Ready
“They’re not false positives. The anti-surge feature correctly detects power surges but it detects them at a threshold which is far too low. Furthermore, these surges are a natural consequence of rapid changes in current and voltage levels that are characteristic of many powerful GPUs. In other words, these surges are not only safe, they are expected, harmless, and often completely unavoidable with even the best PSU. These problems are not experienced with less power hungry components.
Asus’ Anti-Surge protection can be safely turned off if there is an external surge protector connected to the system.”

BTW, the board model number you posted is incorrect. Use the correct model to find the manual on the Asus site, then review the BIOS chapter.
