System Memory? 1

[cantgiveup]

Hi again

In the ASUS A7N8X Manual I'm reading says to "Make sure the memory frequency and bus frequency setting" in the BIOS are the same or set to (Auto) ensure system stability. I went into the BIOS but can't find anything that even says MEMORY FREQUENCY AND BUS FREAQUENCY SETTING. Does anyone know if there is another name for these in the BIOS so I can make sure the AUTO is set?

I believe it is referring to BIOS area Advanced Chipset Features (section 2.42 of the manual I have), CPU External Frequency and the memory Resulting Frequency. You want these two values to match so the DDR memory will be running in synchronous mode.

So in other words in the Advanced Chipset It says CPU External Freq (133 mHZ and the Memory Frequency says By SPD resulting Frequency 133 MHZ would be the same?

Yes, with a resulting Front Side Bus speed of 266MHz

Thank you so much!!
