Hey
My pathetic Diamond Viper v770 32MB (TNT2 BASED) graphics card and my poor 800MHz pc are both AGP 4X compatible. ;)
However although I have set the card to AGP 4X using the jumpers on the card and my motherboards BIOS settings- i am still set to AGP 2X accoring to the NVIDIA drivers (latest version).
Why hasnt it switched from 2X to 4X mode??

256MB SD-RAM,

What do you mean, according to the drivers?

My apologies, its not so much the drivers telling me. When I go to display properties, hit the settings tab, then click advanced, then hit the tab with the name of my graphics card and it comes up with details about drivers and the card itself.
