I got a FIC AD11 mobo. It works fine and stable, but here are my problems. ANy ideas would help as I have tried some time now to get things sorted.
1) The FSB gives me 133 then 138, 140 , etc settings. Everthing is rock solid at 133, but if I go to 138 my system gives me problems with MadOnion 3DMark and some other stuff sometimes. Is this just the limitation of the board?
2) I can only get benchmarks of less than 2000 with Madonion 3DMark2001. Which is way out of spec for running at 1.53 and a GF2Pro. I have the nvidia 12.00 drivers, w2k sp2, but I can only get the 5.13 AGP miniport AMD drivers hat came with the mobo to work. I downloaded the 5.23 from AMD, but it only comes as a exe which self install (or should I say self destructs). I dont know where to get the DLL and INF files so I can just update. Any ideas? I think this might help my score. Please see complete spec below.
3) My CPU runs fine at 1.53 and even with a voltage of 1.93 it never goes to more than 38C (MBM so it might not be the most accurate), but my cooling is pretty good. See spec below. Yet if I go to 12x133 to break 1.6 Prime 95 gives me an error, thats the only program with a problem. Is it beacuase my multiplier is to high. I cant get my FSB high enough to get anything other.
I flashed the lates BIOS for MOBO ABA42 on and the AGP card 30 Jan 01 BIOS (Leadtek). This did not seem to help. ANy ideas would be good. I can always dump the FIC get the Epox EP8K7A with Corsair PC2400 CAS 2 mem, but have to win the Ca lottery ($125M) first ;-)
