Abit KT7A - Enhance Chip Performance Enabled

[Unregistered]

Hi!

With the Abit KT7A-Raid I´m using, my System freezes or restarts when I want to play an Avi or mpeg file etc. when in BIOS "Enhance Chip Performance" is Enabled.
Is that quite normal?

My System:
Abit KT7A-Raid (last BIOS)
Highpoint Raid Controller Onboard (last BIOS)
Athlon 1000@1400 C
Akasa Silver Mountain
384 MB SD-Ram Infineon CL2
Gainward Cardexpert GeForce 2 MX Golden Sample TW
Creative Labs Sound Blaster LIVE! Player 1024
Ethernet Realtek 8139A + 3Com 3C509b
IBM IC35L040 7200rpm 2MB Cache
Acer CRW 8432
Toshiba SD-M1502

Enabling this option increases overall performance so little, that you can set it to Disabled without loosing "real" performance.

Especially as you have overclocked your CPU by 40%, every aggressive BIOS-setting (referring to memory and chipset) will result in decreaed system stability.
