    Well guys I was going through my mainboard manual and I found out this interesting page about the bios. I usually don't mess around with the bios cause I am scared of it. But I just have a few simple questions that I hope one of you have the answers to..

    Ok first, for CPU type I got a Intel P4 but I got a Celeron Running on it.
    Then it has CPU/DRAM Speed at 100/100 Mhz. Now I could change the CPU/DRAM option to the following speeds 133Mhz and 166Mhz. Now I was wondering is it safe to boost it up to at least 133mhz or should I live those settings alone....?????

    thanks in advance.....
    pam...

    i'd leave it alone.
    sometimes when i change to 133 i get no video.
    and, you cannot ever hurt the bios.
    its an eprom device with permanent memory that does need the onboard battery to operate tho.
