Is AGP 4X enabled on the card and the mobo?

 

[kamiam]

had 4x enabled in bios but just changed it to 2x...the card only supports 2x anyway...as for enabling it on the card dont see any references to set agp... again the card dosnt support 4x but can you enable 2x on the card also??... thanks for the reply

??? My Diamond Viper V700 TNT2 does AGP4X. All i had to do was change some jumpers. Try the Detonators at nVidia's website.

Make sure you have AGP Aperature UNDER 256 MB in the BIOS. This was the first problem I had with this board and lasted a week until I finally changed all settings and found out that it was this. This problem has been confirmed on a couple of message boards. Give it a shot if you are using 256 MB for your aperature setting. Hope that's the problem :Q
