My computer:
MSI Master K7-S AMD 761 Chipset
Radeon 8500DV
512mb pc3200 Corsair XMS
No matter what I do, my video card runs slow and NO games are playable.
When I run dxdiag, AGP Texture Acceleration is not enabled, that is the problem. But the problem is that whatever I do, I cannot enable it.
I have tried different Catalysts from 3.2 to 3.9. All of them with a fresh install of Win2k.
I have DirectX 9.0b, SP4, and the correct AGP Drivers installed.
Fast writes is on in the BIOS, but off in the Smartgart Panel.
BIOS is set to AGP 4x, and 128mb AGP Aperture.
Whats odd is that the card works fine in Linux, I can play Quake3 at 1280x1024x32 with all the settings maxxed out and it runs smooth as butter.
Any more ideas?
