P4 1.6A & P4S333... What settings?

Hello,
I read through just about ever post about the 1.6a and OC'ing it.. but, I did not find any settings to use for the ASUS P4S333. Here is my system setup (currently at stock settings).

P4 Northwood 1.6A
ASUS P4S333
AVC Sunflower
256MB KingMax PC2700

Hercules GeForce 2 Ultra
Razer 2000dpi USB mouse

What settings should I try? What are the ONLY settings I should be playing with? I am definitely new to this right now but your guidance will not be forgotten.
Thank you -max
 
I beleive your asus has the sis 645 chipset like my epox board. Look for these settings to adjust: Vcore voltage: change to 1.6 (+ .10); cpu clock: change to 133-138, luck of the draw how high it runs stable; cpu: dram clock ratio: change back to 1/1 if it changes with fsb change. In the "advanced dram control" of the advanced chipset features section: case latency- leave at 2.5 for higher fsb settings; dram addr/cmd rate should be 1T for performance, but you may have to change it to 2T if you use more than 1 ddram module. I would enable "agp fast writes" and "agp sideband address", if you find them, and leave agp aperature size at 128mb. After raising your vcore voltage in the bios, you may want to set your fsb jumper to 133, if your board has it. Some do, some don't. Finally if your board uses the asus probe, your cpu temps may be off by +10 degrees. I used to use motherboard monitor 5, but they don't have a program yet for the sis 645 boards. One more item: if you set your fsb too high and your system won't post: first, press the "insert" key when rebooting. If that doesn't work, unplug your power supply, and enable the "cmos" jumper for 10 seconds, and return to normal position, and start over with your bios settings.
