The information in this article applies to the following configurations:
· ATI RADEON X300/X600/X800 series PCIe graphics card
· ASUS Intel 915/925 or nForce4 based motherboard
In some instances, when PEG Link Mode is set to a value other than Slow within the BIOS setup, users may experience system instability resulting in graphics corruption, video memory orREPLACE_14 Recover errors.
ASUS has recently introduced a new BIOS feature called PEG Link Mode. This feature is available for both AMD and Intel based motherboards and allows the user to increase the engine and memory clocks on the graphics card.
The five user configurable options are:
· Auto
· Slow
·
Normal
· Fast
· Faster
By default the feature is set to Auto, which is the same as "Normal". However, the
Normal setting still slightly overclocks the video card by almost 8%.
The PEG Link Mode value must be set to "Slow" in order to disable the overclocking feature, and allow for proper functionality. To set the PEG Link Mode to Slow, please refer to the steps below:
· Enter System BIOS
· Open Advanced menu -> open the Chipset menu
· Locate PEG Link Mode
· Change setting to Slow
