Games freezing

Yes, he means that key. Turn your computer on and repeatedly press it not hold it down, however if nothing happens then the way to your bios may be an F key. F1 perhaps so try the same thing with the F keys one at a time until you get the right one. Before you start though, turn on your monitor and then your computer so you can see the text on screen as the computer boots. There may be a clue there with a line that reads press F3 to setup or some such. Look for that first then just keep trying till you find the right F key.
If you still have no luck let us know what mobo you have, if you know or as much info about your compy model as poss.
Tata!

Not a Dell
My computer man adds to it as I want them.
I ran SiSoftware Sandra and a lot of Bios things came up.
One of them was AGP Bus is unused and AGP data rate not optimal. Perhaps this could make a difference to the games freezing?

Got IT
Theres Main,Advanced,Security,Power,Boot and exit.
Which one do I go into to tweak my agp

Probably one of the first 2 but have a look round all areas whilst your there. Just dont make any alterations that you are unsure of. You cant hurt anything so long as you dont save.
Good Luck

Went in, had a good look around, came out again. Way too complicated for me.
Thanks to all who helped me.
I've learned a lot this time round.
Once again, thankyou techies

aaaah. You use the USB speedtouch modem? This takes me back to the good old days......these drivers are bab!

I've checked back through all of my posts and I can't see anywhere that I mention my speedtouch modem, but yes, I do have one. I'll check out that website and I'll do the BIOS amendment you suggest.

Soz, been on hols.
