    Radeon X800 XL AGP runs horrible in my old PC

    Did you see my 3d mark scores? The gains WERE huge, I just didn't see them in the games I was playing.

    It's clearly a hardware compatibility issue. My PSU isn't big enough, or something in my BIOS is messed up, or whatever. The card works, it scored fine on 3dmark. I was just tired of trying to make it work. Makes sense.

    Well, I sold the card already. Tired of dealing with it, hopefully it will work for the new owner.

    Radeon X800 XL AGP runs horrible in my old PC

    So, the ATI drivers don't support the older games? I don't understand why it did so well in the benchmark but played a game like F1 Challenge 99-02 so horribly. Since the nvidia drivers obviously work fine for the older games, would a GeForce 6600 be better for me? Does that suck power like...

    I will do that. The games i'm trying to play are: F1 Challenge 99-02 NASCAR Racing 2002 Season e.g. the Ti4200 ran N2002 at 35fps with all the cars on the screen, the X800XL only runs it at 25 or so with the same settings. I downloaded ATITool (to make sure it wasn't DOA) and the little...

    8.5A. I reverted back to my old 160W PSU when I saw that the 300W didn't fix the problem. Yes, I did.

    Radeon X800 XL AGP runs horrible in my old PC

    I replaced my GeForce4 Ti4200 128 MB with an ATI Radeon X800 XL AGP (used). So far for all the games I play (old games, from 2003) with the same settings the framerates are much lower with the X800 XL. Did I install something wrong? Is there something I need to adjust in my system? I have...
