I used this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231589 I didn't actually have much luck with this board (I'm assuming that's because it was open box though.) Are you manually clocking or RAM or just using the X.M.P.? My board was fine using the X.M.P. settings.

You have a keyhole for the board to snap into. Drop the board into the larger part of the keyhole and push it back to jam it into the narrower part of the keyhole that should keep the board in place.

If you are able to access the back side of the lock and are mechanicly inclined you can remove the screws. Play with the buttons. I tried to reset my combo. Turned out i didnt push one of the buttons hard enough while doing so.

Try pushing the reset button on the side. You might have to use a paper clip or pin, but that worked for me when mine locked up.

You should be able to just put in your combination and the lock will unlock. Is that not your experience?

just press a bit harder on the lock. if that doesn't work than its a defect.

my newest replacement is having the same issue. I have to use a screwdriver or something to push in the lock if I've used it hard. Im going to take mine apart and see if theres a molding edge or something that needs filed off.

go to your tool/settings, then keyguard settings, then select "press once". i don't think you can select no lock option, just "press once" or "press twice". the lock can be a good thing, otherwise you would be calling people by accident/pocket dialing. hope this helps?

I assume it's locked up also? I'd contact the maker. They seem concerned that their product works well. They responded to my review about the poorly designed locking mechanism so they might just send you a replacement. Worth a shot!

Check to make sure their is nothing stuck between the locking mechanism and the frame. Also make sure when unlocking to fully press down on the locking mechanism, it may be jammed. I hope this helps good luck

have you tried resetting it? This happened to me and I pushed the reset button and it started working again. I cannot remember for sure where the reset button is exactly but I know it is in the instructions.

I found a great write-up by Mat Kyne posted June 26, 2014. It is documentation for the board and explains all its workings. Look for it. Mat's work in preparing these instructions is commendable and very helpful.

I looked mine over and found no way to lock it. I do not believe that it can be locked.

There's a small reset button on the back that u can press with a paper clip or pin. Or I also took the battery out for a minute and then put it back in. That requires a screw driver. Good luck because mine kept freezing n resetting itself all the time so I ended up just getting a for bit

On the bottom- Did you Take out the pins and switch to the other position? Not the lock position. Need lock position for setup and break down but once you set it up you can pull out the pin and switch it.

Mine locks after pressing down automatically. You must have a faulty one :(
