Problem is: I can't get the right AGP aperature size in BIOS on my mainboard. I'm using a geforce4 mx 420 with 64ddr on board memory. I try to change it from (32) in bios to (64) but it won't save and stay that way. Do I need to set it to (128) because it's ddr?!? I'm using the most current 4 n' 1 drivers for my board too. I have no trouble with changing any other setting and getting them to save. Also is there any other AGP features I should toggle/tweak in bios to get more performance?? Any help/advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a million - Jt


Does anybody have any JuMpEr CaBleS?

No, AGP aperture size has nothing to do with how much memory you have on your video card. Instead, it's how much main memory can be accessed by the video card. Set it at 128MB for best results, as long as you have at least 128MB of RAM in your system.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?
