I had a wierd crash last night playing a fairly system intensive online
game. I use an ATI Radeon 9600 Pro with a fresh install of the Cat 1.10
drivers. The Cat's VPU recovery kicked in and forced me to exit the game.

I was wondering . . . I had only installed the nForce drivers available on
Giga-Byte's web site (2.41 I believe). Is the latest nVidia UDP better for
my system? It installed fine but I'm curious if it adds or detracts from
overall performance.

Everything seems fine on my system too. I am running the F5 BIOS, an XP2100+
w/ 1GB DDR 400 (all auto settings for now) and the Cat 3.10 drivers (not
1.10). All Windows updates are applied.

I did like the Realtek drivers' Sound Effects control panel though. I
suppose I could always re-install it later. I also had to turn AGP Fast
Writes off to stop some hard stalls in WWII Online (an online game) I play.
The game is really resource heavy (and I think my HD is due for a defrag)
and is an excellent torture test. My frame rates looked really good though
with the nVidia UDP installed compared to the 2.41 drivers.

The only other query I have is how do I enable Easytune4 to allow for
overclocking? Right now the bezel where the adjustments are made is blank.
Do I need to select "Manual" settings in the BIOS?

So Easytune4 is only used to verify the settings (and monitor hardware) with
this MoBo?
