Hi,
Okay I know that theres another topic further down that tells you how to activate the PAT feature on an P4P800 board...
But I wondering, I just bought an Asus P4P800 Deluxe MB a few days ago, and I was wondering if the PAT feature can be activated in this...you see I read in an article that the later BIOses for this MB has been changed to "de-activate" this feature. The method to do this is as follows: -
1) Go into BIOS
2) Go to 'Advanced' menu
3) Go into 'Chipset'
4) And ENABLE 'Memory Acceleration'
5) Now you have PAT
The BIOS I have now is version 1005.001 dated 04/22/2003 - this is too late isn't it?
Anyway I tried the method above on my MB anyway, and the result is that after saving the changes the system WOULDN'T boot up. The monitor was on standby and the system LED lights just lit up and stayed that way. Is this a lock in the BIOS they put in, or is it my RAM? Cause the same thing happens when I try to set the Performace option to 'Standard' or 'Turbo'...just doesn't even boot.
