Aperture size
Running the 3.8 Catalyst drivers with a 9600 Pro adapter. System is
Win XP HE on an NF7-S with 1 meg of Mushkin 3200 memory. Had been running with a 32 AGP aperture size at 8x. After trying to change the aperture size could no longer boot and couldn't install any other drivers unless aperture set at 32. What gives? |

They lock the Aperture size to 32. You might want to roll back to older Via drivers. Pluvious |

How do you find that out for sure (the current running aperture size)?
Where did you read about the aperture size? I run the new Hyperions and Sandra says my aperture is still 256.... On Wed, 03 Dec 2003 20:42:21 GMT, "JAD" wrote: is that the hyper 4.51's causing that?

Hi
The NF7-S M/B is not a Via board! I have the same setup and my aperture size is 128. Clear the CMOS and reset the Bios to optimum defaults. Paul "Pluvious" wrote in message ...

If they did install it would most likely make for a mell of a hess and the system probably would not boot into Windows afterwards! -- callsignviper The truth is out there.

We has in who? I'll wait to see what comes of it, rather than rely on an obscure thread in a forum thanks for that.. "bob cox" wrote in message ... this isn't the clearest but may be relevant: http://forums.viaarena.com/messagevi..._MSGDB TABLE= |
