red930 Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 Yeah, one of the admins should move this thread to the correct section. Questions I have are: 1)Which RAM slots to use? 2)Which BIOS? 3)Which Chipset Drivers? 4)Which Forceware Drivers? Answers: 1)You should put your memory modules into the orange slots first. 2)Try the bios that has came with the motherboard to see if everything works for you or not. Don't always think flashing to something new will help in anyway. 3)You should try the lastest 6.86 drivers from here.... http://www.nvidia.com/object/nforce_nf4_win2k_6.86.html (I was always confused if the Expert uses different Chipset drivers from the rest of the DFI boards (NF4-D, Ultra-D, SLI-D, maybe even SLI-DR), but i guess that's only for the Bios version. Hmm..... 4)The forceware drivers, i guess you can just go with the latest and see how your games run and if you see any issues revert back to a stable version 84.** WHQL If you don't like the latest drivers 91.31 try this URL which has alot of goodies.... http://download.guru3d.com/detonator/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
