I have a GA 7VT600 1394. AMD 3200+/400fsb. Is it better to let the mobo recognize it automaticaly by setting SW-1 to off/auto or assign the speed manualy in the bios? I'm having reboot/crash problems and I've pretty much ran out of options. RMA'd the mobo & cpu. Installed new video card &...

Hello, I have an 8gpnxp-duo with 2 corsair DDR2-PC5400 Modules(2X512Mb-matched pair). In the manual Gigabyte discribes how to set the memory frequency to 3 times host clock, but in my bios (F5) I only see 1.66, 2.00 2.66 and AUTO. When set to AUTO the frequency is 2.66 x hostclock(200Mhz) and...

My system, built around the GA-7N400 Pro 2 Mainboard, has been running fine for several months now. Just recently it has started shutting itself down and emitting a single beep which repeats every 2 seconds or so. The manual says this is a DRAM error.

I am trying to look about ways to upgrade the BIOS of my Gigabyte motherboard (to fix video card issues I outlined in this thread), but I cannot seem to find the exact motherboard on the Gigabyte website. This worries me somewhat, since I most definitely don't want to make a mistake here....

I just bought the GA-K8NS Ultra-939 along with an Athalon 64 3000+ in a retail box w/fan. When I hooked everything up, the CPU fan died after about 10 sec. at the second POST screen.
