enhance cpu try it and see if your system is stable
AGP aperture size ? 128mb
AGP driving force ? dunno
AGP fast write - enabled but its dependent on your gfx drivers if its used
AGP read syncronization - feck knows
enhance agp performance - try it...
AGP master 1 ws write ?
AGP master 1 ws read ?

AGP master 1 ws write = Yes
AGP master 1 ws read = Yes
Better stability

Your agp aperture size should be 50% of your total sytem ram.
Not taking into account of your graphics card ram.

Ok aperture size is supposed to be twice the amount of memory on your card. I say supposed because it desnt seem to make a difference anyway.
AGP driving force helps stability with some cards it changes the AGP driver signal strength. So if you are getting some games crashing its worth trying different values for this.
Higher value in hex is stronger signal.
AGP master 1 ws write
AGP master 1 ws read
When you enable these 2 only one waitstate is used instead of the usual 2 waitstates. so enabled = better performance.
But some mobo manufacturers use a default of 0 waitstates so it could reduce performance :)
