System Specs

thats one i havn't see in ages so I looked it up:

"The USWC or Uncacheable Speculative Write Combination setting is found on most boards
with AGP capability, this setting enabled may cause problems with graphics cards that do not
support it. Even supported cards may have issues with it. Also, this setting enabled offers
little performance boost and even decreases performance in some cases. If you're having
problems, disable this setting."

This is a highly reputable site http://www.rojakpot.com/default.aspx...ar1=0&var2=164 but they're are different views of USWC.

This BIOS feature allows you to control the USWC (Uncached Speculative Write Combining) write combine buffers. If enabled, the write combine buffers will accumulate and combine partial or smaller graphics writes from the processor and write them to the graphics card as burst writes. If disabled, the write combine buffers will be disabled. All graphics writes from the processor will be written to the graphics card directly. It is highly recommended that you enable this feature for improved graphics and processor performance.However, if you are using an older graphics card, it may not be compatible with this feature. Enabling this feature with such graphics cards will cause a host of problems like graphics artifacts, system crashes and even the inability to boot up properly. If you face such problems, you should disable this BIOS feature immediately.
