Re: XP not recognizing AGP 8X
Thanks ANZAC_ELITE. I was kinda hoping it was just an inaccuracy in the nVidia control panel. My brothers computer is:
AMD Athlon 2400+ (2.0 GHz)
ATI Radeon 9550 All-In-Wonder 256 MB
FIC AM37 mobo
1 GB PC2700 RAM
and we are running the exact same resolution,AA,AF, etc...
Shouldn't mine be pushing more FPS? I have a 333MHz FSB, 512K L2 cache, 8X AGP whereas his is only 266MHz FSB, 256 L2 cache and 4X AGP other than that they are pretty much identical computers. In all the other benchmarking tests my comp is slightly better but when it comes to graphics his is killing mine. I don't know if mentioned this but I am only getting 10 FPS in DOOM3 at med graphics level(600X800)
with all the options off. I read some comparison articles and this card was getting 30-40 fps at this level, most likely this was on a better machine but I don't think that crappy performance level is normal. Oh yeah, my computer bundle already came with XP SP2 preinstalled. Is there a certain sequence I have to follow for installing drivers since I already have SP2?
