    This link will take you to systool which allows you to make all kinds of changes. I have upped the Ram to 400 which allows my new 1 gig of Corsair PC 3200 to breath. Thats up from the 326 after I installed the new memory and couldnt change it in the bios. Sandra verified 400. I have noticed an increase in overall performance, just seems to be snappier. Next I will try to change some of the timings. Since this is a software fix through Windows, it doesnt hold when rebooted which could be good if I get any lockups. 3dmark 2001 went up 380 points. Not much but a start.

    http://www.techpowerup.com/systool/ So far seems stable.
