After a fresh XP install on a new hard drive, I had some serious
graphics lockups. I tried everything and finally after setting the AGP
to 4x, the system is stable. I'm pretty sure I was running at 8x
before, so I'm wondering why I can't run at 8x now. I'm using bios 7.

Have been experimenting with BIOS settings and Memtest 1.15.  I've
discovered that BIOSs prior to rev FH do not enable PAT.  If you're
running a gigabit lan it looks like the update to FH is for you.  If
you haven't already tried it, the latest incarnation of Memtest adds a

Am I the only one having problems getting to the BIOS update section in
Gigabyte suport? I go down the list as you do and select my MOBO and it just
sits there doing nothing. Any help welcomed.
Also, am setting up a raid 1 system with the same mobo and have a one SATA

Is the 7N400V Pro2 any good?
I want a board like the 7N400 Pro2 but also with VGA.
Is the "V" version much inferior?

Hi all
I'm running Red Hat 9 on an 8knxp which I bought recently.  I have noticed that:
RH9 refuses to acknowledge the existence of the onboard lan (despite loading e1000.o as a module) or of the onboard sound. Also, (under ...

New Gigabyte GA-7DPXDW motherboard with ANTEC PSU. Connected the FAN
connector lead from the PSU to the motherboard but the BIOS reports system
fan speed is zero.
Should I be worried?

I have revision 2.1 of this motherboard, everything seems ok and
working....yet on a cold boot up i get BIOS beeps. The manual is no real
help but i get alot of beeps that are not consistent with what the manual
states.

Hello :)
I'm italian..and sorry for my english...
A question: in this M/B, what is the fastest CPU that I can install?
Thanx a lot :)) !

I recently changed to this motherboard from a GA-7VAXP and I am getting a
dead keyboard on starting up - no lights flash and the keys are dead. I have
found that if the power is removed from the computer for about 10 seconds -
keyboard and mouse (PS2) are always alive - it will work ...

OK, I did have:
Gigabyte GA8-848P (L) BIOS F5, P4-2.66/533 fsb (Northwood), 1 gig PC3200
(DDR400 @166 real=333), Radeon 9800 Pro 128, WinXP Pro SP1.
System ran fine, cool, no problems, no resets, no video card lockup, no

I am running an 8PE667 Ultra board with the latest available bios
(F3 10-16-02) and Windows XP Home. Will this bios recognize a drive bigger
than 137gb, such
as 160 or 200gb?

8KNXP, 3.06GHz w/HT enabled, XP pro up to date.
ET4 volunteered to update itself, and in an unguarded moment, I
thought, 'oh, what the hell'.  Wasn't as bad as it could have been,
looks pretty much the same as the year-old version I'd been using.

Unfortunately I can't leave my computer alone and I end up creating
problems for myself. I like the motherboard - lots of features and not
too expensive.
