Thanks for your reply...I went to the website you have given me...but it is written in korean... Where can I get an update for my bios ?

Whenever I set the AGP Aperture size in BIOS to 64MB the system does not detect my Video Card which is an nVidia Riva TNT2 32MB. Maybe a bios update will fix that?
