Zylbar Posted October 28, 2006 Posted October 28, 2006 Over on the nVidia quad-sli forum one guy got his problems with lockups on game startup by running nTune. http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=20146 Can I get any feedback from you guys on nTune? Anybody used it? It's supposed to tweak bios timings automatically and/or interactively without going into the bios. I don't know if it saves them or not. If I reboot and try to save current settings into a CMOS reload slot will they be the ones that nTune came up with? thx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted October 28, 2006 Posted October 28, 2006 Personnaly I wouldn't use it for anything,especially making any changes outside of bios,just don't use it,potential disaster From H_G NEVER USE NTUNE ON DFI MOTHERBOARDS FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN TEMP MONITORING. PERIOD NEVER EVER NEVER USE IT TO ADJUST SETTINGS/OVERCLOCK YOU WILL KILL YOUR MOTHERBOARD AND MORE THAN LIKELY YOUR CPU AND VIDEO AND POSSIBLY MEMORY DO NOT USE THIS PROGRAM __________________ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zylbar Posted October 28, 2006 Posted October 28, 2006 Well i'm new to the forum, and don't know H_G but his assertions are extreme, and not written in a way to make me take it seriously. It's not going to kill the motherboard, nor the memory, nor the cpu. If worse comes to worst I can clear cmos and start over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted October 28, 2006 Posted October 28, 2006 H_G is the forum owner and DFI tech and actually the exact post was most emphatic in big bold red letters. You have been warned,do as you will Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
red930 Posted October 28, 2006 Posted October 28, 2006 It is strongly advised not to use it. Period. If the admin says something this strongly, I suggest that you take it seriously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharp Posted October 28, 2006 Posted October 28, 2006 Hello, You should not use the ntune software as it can cause serious/permanent damage to your hardware. This means a CMOS reset will not help you in anyway. For that reason you should avoid the software. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
