Help needed to get the AGP Acceleration enabled

[lehtomaj]

Hi !
I also need help to enable my AGP Acceleration.
I have Radeon 9500PRO 128 Mb memory and MSI KT4V mainboard (in Win XP with SP1).
I have latest bios for mainboard and also latest Radeon drivers and DirectX9b, but still DirectX analysis shows AGP Acceleration not available.

I have set AGP Aperature size to 256 Mb in bios (I have 512 Mb 333 Mhz memory) and the AGP is at 4x speed in Advanced Settings in XP.

Any help is highly appreciated!

Get latest motherboard drivers.
If it's via chipset, www.viaarena.com
If it's sis chipset, www.sis.com
If it's intel chipset, don't know
If it's nvidia chipset, www.nvidia.com

As said in the original text, I have the latest bios for motherboard already.

Yes, but that is not the same thing as motherboard drivers.

OK then, but how I'll know what chipset I have?

Sigh.. Site lost my login and then said this thread is invalid

The chipset is listed in the mobo manuf. site, like here is your mobo->

Go to viaarena and get the 4in1 drivers.

I loaded those new chipset drivers and the AGP setting in XP rose to 8x. But no help to AGP acceleration, though.
I then enabled the "Fast write" (or something) option in XP and then the AGP Acceleration worked ok !!! So thanks for the advices!
