Titolo: Come devo conf. Il BIOS??????????

Help!!
Ho una Mb Asus P5A con il bios 1007 (l'ultimo) il mio computer si comporta
in modo strano, specialmente con i giochi accelerati 3d con tutto che tengo
sempre aggiornati tutti i driver possibili, ogni tanto si blocca
irreversibilmente, lascindomi con lo schemo fisso. A volte rieco a bloccare
il processo e rientrare nel Desktop. Invio i risultati del test wintune98
aggiungendo che possiedo le seguenti periferiche.
Mouse e tastiera cordless logitech, scanner paralleloCannon FB310, Stampante
su porta USB1 Epson stylus photo 750, scheda scsi con 1Iomaega zip e un
Syquest ezdrive.
Ho l'mpressione che tutto dipenda dalla errata conf. del Bios specilamente
per la Ram (128Mb 7ns 100MHz). HD IBM 7200giri 10,5 GB, hd second Samsung
4GB, scheda sonora Creative SB awe64 Gold, Scheda ISDN interna Elsa, scheda
video STB Velocity 4400 TNT
Grazie a tutte le anime pie che si occuperanno di me.

irreversibilmente, lascindomi con lo schemo fisso. 
E` estate.
Prova a tenere il pc aperto e sentire quanto sono caldi dissipatore e scheda
video mentre giochi.
Se scottano (cioe` non riesci a tenerci il dito sopra...) potrebbe essere
quello il problema, risolvibile con un bel ventilatore davanti al pc aperto.
Se vuoi provare gli smanettamenti del BIOS, ti consiglio di disabilitare l'UDMA
per l'harddisk e di alzare un po' i timing della memoria.
Se non cambia niente e` meglio che rimetti i valori di default che stanno
scritti nel manuale della P5A (tra parentesi dopo il titolo di ogni voce del
Setup).
