How do I disable fast writes

[mOeeOm]

I know its in the BIOS, but how do I get to it in the Bios? Can someone post a good detailed guide please so I don't screw up anything?

usually just press Delete when your computer is booting. Right at the start it will say "Press Delete to enter Setup"

Then navigate around until you find it. If you give your motherboard model I am sure someone can give a much more detailed answer.

BIOS is usually entered with one of the following keys: F1, F2, F10, Delete, or a key combination (shudder).

Okay, on that mobo, hit the delete key. (On page 76 of the manual).

That doesn't help me disable fast writes! I can get into bios, but can't find it

Hmmm. I got an error while going through the manual online... I'll download it and take a look. Hold on a sec.

EDIT: downloadTHEMall! rocks. It was the only way I was able to save the damned file...

Uhh.. There is no fast writes for PCI-Express right?

I think I found it... Look at the 5th & 6th posts. Apparently there are hidden "tweaking" and OCing options in the BIOS... Err, I think that's it. Ugh, I don't know. I'm tired, and I still have school work to do. If that's not it, I'm sorry. I think it is though... I'm gonna go make some coffee....

Okay... I have never messed with PCI-E, just AGP, PCI, and PCI-X. Gotcha.

pci-x?

 

[Fullmetal Chocobo]

Yeah.... Server based PCI bus. A hell of a lot faster. They never made any graphics cards for it, but it kicks ass for RAID controllers.
