GF2 MX card on an older MB

Hi all,
I have a older MB running a GF2MX card and in one of vendors tabs for info (running Leadtek drivers) in settings, it tells me my AGP is disabled. Is there any way to confirm this???

Please LMK.
Thanks.
 
I use WCPUID from H. Oda.

Ygm on that app.

OR

If you're running Win9x and have DX7x installed. You can run DXDIAG.exe from Start/Run. Check under the Display Tab to verify that AGP is running.
 
I found that Powerstrip will force just about any AGP function you want. Your system may crash with some of them but at least you can try it.
 
I did the test and found out that indeed the AGP port is disabled.
Is there a registry setting I can tweak to fix it or is it a driver problem??

Thoughts.

May use powerstrip as a last resort.
 
One question.

Does AGP get disabled when you use any Det. drivers with GF/GF2/MX cards because of the AGP sidebanding address feature???

Please LMK
 
If you are using Win2K with the drivers it auto loads for the MX that would explain it, if not then I don't know what your encountering.

When Win2K detects any TNT2 or GEForce card it installs drivers but if you run dxdiag you'll see only PCI perfomance. Using any newer nvidia reference drivers fixes it.
