Hi,

Could someone out there with an overclocked p4 2.4c and an asus p4p800dlx (something higher then 3.3ghz stable) help me with my bios settings. I dont know which of the things in there I should have enabled or disabled... If you know of a website that would give me the info, that would be awesome too.
 
I've got a 2.4C at 3400 stable. What settings are you not sure about? I've noticed mine likes 1.6 volts, and if I go one setting over or under that it crashes pretty fast.
 
Here are a few detailed questions... what should I set them as?:

1)IDE Config: Enhanced Mode Support On ????

2)IDE Port Settings?

3)Serial ATA BOOTROM?

4) Performance Mode ? On or off? (does it do anything? will it make my comp unstable?)

5)Memory Accelerator Mode? On or off?

6) DRAM Idle Timer?

7) DRAM Refresh Mode?

8) DRAM Burst Length? (4 or 8 clocks?)

9) Spread Spectrum?

10) ICH Delay Transaction?

11)MPS Revision? (1.1 or 1.4)

12) ECP Mode DMA Channel?

13)PCI Latency Timer?

14) Pallete Snooping?

15)PCI IDE BusMaster?

16)Throttle Slow Clock Ratio?

17) Add On ROM Display Mode?
 
here is what I'm trying atm:

AI Overclock Tuner: Manual
CPU External Frequency (MHZ): 285
DRAM Frequency: 320
AGP/PCI Frequency (MHZ) 66.66/33.33

CPU VCore Voltage 1.5625V
DDR Reference Voltage 2.85V
AGP VDDQ Voltage 1.70V

Performance Mode Turbo


Advance Chipset Settings:

Configure DRAM Timing by SPD Disabled
DRAM CAS# Latency 2.5 Clocks
DRAM RAS# Precharge 3 Clocks
DRAM RAS# to CAS# Delay 3
DRAM Precharge Delay 7
DRAM Burst Length 4
Performance Acceleration Mode Enabled
DRAM Idle Timer Auto
DRAM Refesh Rate Auto

Graphics Adapter Priority AGP/PCI
Graphics Aperture Size 128
Spread Spectrum Disabled

ICH Delayed Transaction Enabled

MPS Revision 1.4

This is a p4c800d with a 2.4c malay and 2-256 ocz 3700 gold
 
1) leave on enhanced if you're running win2k or xp.
2) default settings should work fine
3) obviously you need the ata boot rom enabled to setup raid like you have
4) you can try performance mode, but if your system starts crashing disable it.
5) same as #4
6) auto
7) auto or 15.6
8) 8
9) disable
10) enable
11) 1.4
12) default should work - this is parallel printer port setting
13) 16 or 32
14) disable
15) default or enabled
16) default or 50%
17) default
