Q: I just formatted my computer, and install DirectX 9.0b, and the latest ATI Catalyst drivers, but I have a problem. In the display properties, when I SMARTGART, AGP setting is disabled and Fast Write is disabled. It should be set to AGP 8x and Fast Write on. Any clue why I can not change?

Re:Remember though, there is no difference in performance between 4X and 8X, so it's no loss if you can't get it to work.
I would want it to work though, because it should.

Re:Maybe try the latest VIA drivers here:
VIA Hyperion (http://www.viaarena.com/?PageID=403)
Re:Yes, now check your BIOS settings.
Run DXDIAG and see what it says under DISPLAY about AGP texture acceleration.
What video card?
Re:Did you check the bios?
Re:Ok ive done what you said and i am still running essentially with no agp. I installed the new chipset drivers, then uninstalled the catalyst drivers, reinstalled them, and then reinstalled Directx 9.0b.
Re:Yes. Look at the menu on the left and click on drivers.
Then click on the little symbol on the right that says download now.
It's an executable. Just run it.
Re:Can i dl those drivers from there??? How do i go about updating them?? Also how do i uninstall the old drivers??
Re:Here you go. (http://usa.aopen.com/products/mb/AK77-8XMax.htm)
You can probably just use the latest VIA 4 in 1 driver from anywhere. A quick google should find it easily.
The board is being phased out.
Re:I am having the same problem with an AK77-8x max board. How would i go about updating my chipset drivers??

Re:Yep, you need to install your motherboard's chipset drivers. Then reinstall your video drivers, I believe.
Re:Get the latest intel chipset drivers. Did you check in the bios too see if agp 8x and fast write was turned on? If not, do so.
Re:Its an ASUS P4C800 Deluxe , Intel 875P chipset motherboard. On the CD it only has drivers for USB 2.0 (not required if you have XP SP1) and the onboard LAN. Nothing for the AGP 8x. When I first got this motherboard and upgraded, back in January, I didn't have this problem. AGP 8x and Fast Write turned themselves on automatically after the format and Windows install.
Re:Did you install the chipset drivers for your motherboard? (also, what motherboard do you have)?
