Try installing and or upgrading your motherboard drivers. I see you have several other errors in your device manager. That may be the problem.

thanks for youre reply

but i already install the recent drivers , the error that you see it's my parralel port which i stop working with few days ago because of moving to usb printer .

can someone check if in the device manager it's appear as pci altough it agp ?

PCI bus 1, device 0, function 0


My card says same thing, ti4200, might just be the way windows labels it, i got my reading from clicking on:

Display properties:
Advanced:
Adapter:
Properties:

the FX5200 isn't a real fast card, where are you getting slow results from?

[Sweeper]

Correct - PCI bus 1, device 0, function 0 is the correct reading. BUT, I also saw those other errors and assumed some drivers might be missing.

In the device manager under system devices do you have anything listed that says AGP? Maybe cpu to AGP controller or some such.

hi

no , no agp under system devices only pci .

is this the problem ?

Before you install the mainboard chipset's AGP port drivers, the AGP will look like a bridged PCI bus. This is normal. You need to figure out what chipset is on the mainboard, then download and install the respective AGP driver.

[squeech]

Agreed, without an CPU to AGP controller and PCI bridges your system will show strange results. Update the chipset drivers

BTW, when you do so the PCI bus marking will stay as Windows marks AGP as part of the PCI bus, but that "PCI Slot 10" mark should go away!

Good Luck!
