Okay...
I have been toying with my computer for a while now trying to figure this out, and tech support for various hardware keeps redirecting me, so I hope some of you can help me. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Okay, in dxdiag when I look under my display tab, AGP texture acceleration is listed as "Not Available", this shouldn't be, but for the life of me I cant figure out why it IS...(yes direct draw is enabled)
Please help.

System:
OS: WinXP Home /DX: 9.0a
MB: Epox 8RDA nforce2
-BIOS: Pheonix Award Bios, 6.00PG (The lastest I found on the Epox board as of today)
-Driver: Unified driver pack for WinXP v2.00
Proccesor: AMD Athalon 2600+
Video: Radeon 9700 PRO
-Driver: Catalyst 3.4, recent driver on ati.com, changed from 3.1 which had the same problem
Sound: SB live! Value
-Driver: 3300 (current)
Memory: 1024mb ddr Crucial pc2700

I tested the system with 3dMark03 and got a 4606, which is wierd, cause that seems high considering agp texture acc. is not running.

I flashed my bios w/ newest availiable, reinstalled DX 9.0a, reinstalled recent video drivers.
Enabled/Disabled directdraw and direct3d.

Any feedback or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
