Last night power went off. After it came cack, I turned my PC on and I got message on startup: CMOS checksum error- loading defaults.

I reset my pc BIOS, have some questions:

AGP APERTURE SIZE(MB): I have 256Mb RAM, video- AGP 32MB, what setting I should use here?

SDRAM LEADOFF COMMAND: 2 or 3? I also have SDRAM CAS LATENCY TIME setup on 2.

PCI/VGA PALETTE SNOOP: I have ENABLED. My video card is AGP. Is ENABLED right?

VIDEO OFF METOD: I have DPMS- is that right?

These I have ENABLED(is it right setting[s]?:
SYSTEM BIOS CACHEABLE
VIDEO BIOS CACHEABLE
VIDEO RAM CACHEABLE

TIA for any help.
