Bios Settings

[iDJKi]

Anyone who can help me with the following BIOS settings I greatly appreicate... I'm not that good at this stuff.... here are my specs :

Abit KR7a
AMD Athlon XP 2100+ @ 1733 Mhz
512 DDR
ATI Radeon 9700 PRO

I think this is the important specs.. should anyone need others, just ask..

And these are the bios settings as they are now that I think are relevant to performance :

Again any help with any settings appreciated Tnx a lot

using only the settings you gave, heres how I run my KR7A-133:


I use a GF4 Ti-4200 128mb Golden Sample, video card.

The memory timings I use are very different from yours. If you have fast memory, you will see a huge gain with my settings. Tweak the Rx6C and Rx6D memory timings can also improve overall memory operations, but is hard on the memory.

Do not use the 1t address for memory unless you are using fast memory, because it corrupts the registry.

You should set you AGP aperture to 256mb. I tested it with UT2k3 for more than 100 runs, and the higher the AGP aperture (provided you have at least 512mb memory), the faster the game was.
