AGP Settings

I just put together my first pc, and noticed that there doesnt seem to be any way of changing my AGP setting. (1x, 2x, 4x) It is currently set at 1x. I have tried to change this in my BOIS, but there is no way to do it. Its does offer me the choice of enabling AGP 8x, but that is it, enable or disable. I can also change the AGP frequency (33mhz, 66mhz, AUTO ) and fast write enable/disable. Any help would be appreciated.
 
😉 You want to enable 'AGP8x' mode as disabling this should simply force AGP1x mode, the naming isn't very accurate, if your card is AGP4x it will fall back so enabling AGP8x with a 4x card is not going to do any harm at all. I'd leave AGP freq at AUTO although 66mhz is what it should be I'd say Auto is the better option. Enabling fast writes should give a small speed boost so really you want that enabled too. If you are o/c'ing then set everything back to default while you troubleshoot. Other than that I'd suggest you install the latest drivers (pref WHQL) from nVidia's website (nForce2 & prob Dets too). If you are prompted during driver installation be sure to enable AGP Turbo mode and similar things as it could be Windows which is defaulting back to AGP1x mode. If you haven't done a fresh OS install then this may be needed, esp if that mobo and gfx card are new to Windows.
