Agp (pci-mode) ????????

[okiomykio]

What does AGP (pci-mode) mean?
I noticed many had problem with this...does it mean my card is not doing its best?? My motherboard is Intelcompatible so thats not the problem. Maybe i could do a biosupdate but do i really have to?

Is there any option in bios to change?

Thank you for help!!

it means its in PCI mode, and u will need to download the latest drivers to the video card and your motherboard AGP Driver

so if i do an complete biosupdate , that should fix it?

but i thought i noticed people earlier in the forum, with the same problem, had done that and it didnt really help?

ok but thanks anyway

ya it should help.

whats your mother board and video card?? befire you go through flashing the bios check your setting in you bios and make sure you have itr set to agp and have the setting correct. And then d/l the latest drivers for your card. Unless its an older revision of a board there should be no need to flash the bios

flashing bios
video card drivers
AGP for MOBO Drivers

these should be downloaded

Ive got an ASUS P4G8X deluxe....with GF4 ti4200 and its all Intel-compatible!
i dont think flashing is needed but where do i find "AGP for MOBO drivers"?

Richee! what is itr?


ive downloaded latest detonator driver as well!

a typo sorry...my typing isn't the greatest today. And with that board there is no reason to suggest flashing the bios for that video card. and there should be no reason to flash the bios.

you shouldn't need to update any drivers on the board either but here's the link for the boards d/l's http://www.asus.com.tw/support/downl...P4G8X%20Deluxe

here's the link for the latestbios should you wish to update it

I didn't find any agp drivers updates but the bios says it updates onboard SATA Boot ROM andd Improve AGP card margins but before flashing your bios you need to make sure you don't already have the latest one.

I'm not really sure what your saying the problems is if there even is one? other than asking what agp pci mode means is there some kinda problem with your video?

ok what is your mobo type. like what is the manufactur. what ever it is then go to their website and look under downloads. should see driver downloads

i think i managed it!

I updated the chipset from the motherboard-site...i think
And that made it! suddenly it said agp-mode...

thank you guys!
