How to get my Viper V770 Ultra to run at 4X AGP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kelvincsteoh]

I can only get my Viper running at 2x AGP
eventhough my Tyan Trinity 400 S1854 motherboard
bios is set at AGP 4X.
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Read the manual, there's a switch or something on it. Lemme see if I still have my manual for mine, hold on...

Yeah here it is. There's a little piece of paper that tells you how to do it. There are three "jumper-covers" that you have to put in the right spot on three jumpers on the card to enable 4x mode. If you don't have this paper but have some of those spare "jumper-closer-thingies" lying around I can tell you which jumpers to cover.

For a 4x motherboard:

JP1,2,3 = closed

JP4 = B-C

Konichiwa konichiwa....
Thanks for your reply. Yup I do not have the manual for the graphics cards layout. I know about the jumper thingy and I do have the extra jumper cover. But I am unable to locate the jumper on the card. I would appreciate it if you could send me a copy of the scanned image of the card's layout (from the manual). You are a lifesaver.

I tried doing that before with my K7V and a Viper 770u, it didn't work.

Not all viper V770 ultras will run at 4x AGP. Only later ones did.

Hmm....I got mine like a week after they came out, so theres the problem....ah well I don't really care it doens't make that much of a difference anyway

I've got a non ultra and had a tyan 1854 but couldn't make it run at 4x via the bios and the jumpers.
