I just built my new system with xp 2100 8krda+ from epox and kingmax hyprex 3000 memory. It booted fine into 166mhz bus (mild overclock) and plays quake 3 and others and surfs from default voltage. My problem is that unreal tournament 2003 will not run well (it crashes afetr the splash screen from nvidia) I think that the limiting factor is the video card. Can I give more voltage to the card?? It is now at 1.5v and i have settings to go higher. Any comments or advise very welcome thanks for reading. Mark

all the setting in the bios does is give more voltage to the AGP Slot, not to the card. you should have no problem ramping it as high as it will go, assuming that AGP slot voltage is really the problem. i personally run with my agp slot voltage bumped a couple notches, as i find that it gives me a little more stability.

Would any software adjustments be needed?? to increase the stability of UT 2003 on this machine? Would dx 9 help ? I am currently running xp professional thanks for viewing mark
