"AGP Texture Acceleration" Not Enabled |
|
|
I've upgraded my motherboard and now have the following system:
* Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe motherboard
* 2600+ Athlon XP
* Radeon 9800 graphics card
* 1GB DDR400 RAM
When I access the DirectX Diagnostic Tool (dxdiag), I notice that "AGP
Texture Acceleration" is not available, and can't be enabled (button is
grey).DirectDraw and Direct3D are both enabled.
I've installed the following drivers:
* Radeon Catalyst 5.10 drivers (latest)
* nForce all in one drivers 2.64 (latest from Asus site).
The following SMARTGART options are set in the ATI utility:
* AGP speed: 8 x
* Fast write: On
* Current statue: On
The following graphics-related BIOS options are set:
* Graphics aperture size: 512MB
* AGP Frequency: Auto
* Video RAM Cachable: Disabled
* AGP 8X support: Enabled
* AGP Fast Write Capability: Enabled
What else do I need to do?
Cheers,
P. |

Those are very conflicting readings. :-)
Do any Direct3D games work? What about OpenGL games?
Reinstall DirectX 9.0c.

.... and re-install the mobo drivers. Something wrong with those drivers is
usually the culprit. Try the unified NForce2 drivers direct from NVidia

Asus has not updated that driver page for years. I wonder why. |
