Hello

I've been reading these forums for awhile and have learned alot, so I thought I better start posting some of my own question. In BIOS, am I suppossed to set the graphic aperture size to the full amount of ram I have available. For instance, I have 512 ram, so should it be set to 512? What exactly Is this? Thanks for your time.

The general rule is 1/2 the size of your ram. If you have a high MB vid card, a higher aperture is not that nesserary. Hope this helps.
