When in the BIOS, have you tried the Control and F1 buttons, to enter the
performance settings. Page 37 in my manual.


I use CTRL-F1 all the time, though using "Top Performance" locks up
the system and this is the first motherboard I've had since the 386
days that requires you to pull the battery to clear the CMOS.


There is a Clock Spread Spectrum option in Bios. Set it to Enable or
Auto.
If that doesnt work, go the advanced chipset options(using ctrl-f1)
and turn off fastwrites, and set agp aperture size to 128mb if you
have =1GB of ram or 256MB if you have more than 1GB. If you can find
a bios option like AGP driving or AGP comp driving, set it to higher
value(warning this may result to crash) .
