Two weeks back I installed NFSU2, the game ran very slow so I decided to buy a 256 memory module to add; the game stayed the same, no improvement at all, even windows looked the same, so I downloaded some tools for benchmarking, did some tests, some results told me that memory runs slow (there are some discrepances between what BIOs says and what windows says); BIOS settings are to poor, it just has some very few options avaible and none of them are important so I can't, for example, enable audio device, select VGA source, etc.; my question is: what should I do? is there any way to get more BIOS settings (advanced settings)?
This are the specs:
Compaq Presario 2500 (2505EA)
Pentium 4 2.40GHz
448ram (64 to on board Radeon IGP 345M) (DDR)
This are the results from a memory test:
