I just finished reinstalling XP sp2 and my ATI 9500 is acting strangely. I cannot set AGP speed faster than 0X. When I select 4X or 8X (like was set before the reinstall) and reboot, it comes back to 0X.

I have the most recent ATI driver, which I actually didn't have before, was using an older one.

Do I just need to revert to an older driver? I am not overclocking or doing anything that would make me think I have an unusual setup. Asus p4S800 512MB crucial RAM, 2.4 Intel P4, ATI 9500 128 mb, etc. (will share more if it makes a difference...)

Thanks!
 
Nevermind. Got it.

In case anyone has a similar deal, I hadn't installed the AGP drivers that came with the motherboard along with the other chipset drivers. Duh.
 
Heh. I had this problem with one of my computers, its a simple mistake that we all make :D Glad you got it all worked out :p
 
Glad you posted your solution for future reference!

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
