Hi and welcome to the forums, edit you profile adding your system specs, grab a BIOS template and fill it up and we'll start from there.

Welcome to the forums

You need to be more specific.

Please put your system specs in your profile and list all your BIOS settings.

If your board is a DK version, it a has a slightly different layout.

We got BIOS templates like this for the DFI LP LT X38 T2R, you need to copy it and write all your settings.

CPU Special VID Add.

Okay thanks - yes that is the same screen i have - i was on another forum and some one posted this:

"CPU VID control on DFI boards are if you will "direct vcore changes" where as the CPU add does as it says.

It adds the percentage of the CPU Vid to the total vcore but there is one difference. CPU Special add being a percentage means you can overclock and keep such things as speed step etc running.

When the system lowers voltage, your percentage is still applied and your clock is higher than what it would usually be if the multiplier was dropped.

Your board being a DK (cut down cheaper model) version will probably have was less complex vcore circuitry, hence why you have technically less options. However, as said above - it's in some ways better than setting vcore directly."

So i guess i dont need the option? :S


also,
how long do you think it will take to upload a 400mb video to youtube one a 20 megabit internet connection?

lol

No template needed now, but if you need any help, it's best to post your genie BIOS settings
