Hi guys,
I can't get my video to go to 4x. Everytime i clear the cmos and go into the bios, the system is set to 4x AGP. But when i boot up to windows and i check on sandra is shows AGP 2X. When i go back to the bios, it only shows 1x and 2x option. The 4X dissapear so i there is only 1x and 2x. I also tried my marvel video card, and same results. The only time 4x shows up is when i cleared the CMOS, and only during that first boot up after clearing the CMOS. I can select 4x and when i click saved and exit bios, and then reenter again, i see 2x and 1x only.
here is my rig.
8k5a2+
radeon 8500DV - and also tried it with a marvel g400TV(same results).
barton 2400+
512mb hyperx
everything else is taken out.
Is is a sign of a bad bios? or a bad agp slot? I was running 4x for a long time. until i switch in the radeon video and sometime there after somehow it went to 2x only.
Please help?
