Voltage on AGP Graphics Port?

[Guido Kohnen]

Hi.

My Bios allow me to choose Voltage on AGP Port between 1,5V and 1,7V.

I use a ATI Radeon 9800XT Card and cannot find how much this Card is
needing.

Anyone knows this?

1.5v is the default and shouldnt need to be changed.

I changed that voltage once, and then the screen went blank and wouldn't
come back...
I had to change back the AGP voltage in the BIOS without being able to
see what was on the screen.
Good job I had a good Motherboard manual with pictures of the screens,
otherwise I would I have been in trouble.

No - same manual should also describe a jumper that will clear CMOS ie set
all BIOS options back to default in the event of problems.

Always good for resetting bios level passwords when people have
forgotten them...

I enjoy the look on their faces when you bypass their security with a
screwdriver.

I always liked the old Award BIOS with a well known override password that
always worked

On my Abit IC7 I can just hold down the Insert key during boot up and
it sets everyting in the bios back to default. No need for a
screwdriver.
