Helo pipz.. I just downloaded EVEREST HOME EDITION, and installed it on my PC...after browsing the content...i found out that my video card which is Geforce FX 5500 256mb AGP 8x/4x showing only AGP 4x..i thought my mobo supports 8x..also called A.G.I. in asrock terminology which means ASRock Graphics Interface..upgradable from 4x to 8x. Souldnt' my GFX card be 8x?..to be maximum? There are no ways that i can adjust my AGP from 4x to 8x...coz i bet its auto detect from GFX card. pls help.. tnx...

If you have your motherboard chipset installed, you should be able to set the speed to 8X, and you BIOS should have a setting for that allowance. List of lists

i do have my motherboard chipset installation, and have the latest drivers 4 it. There's no option in my bios to set the speed to 8x.. Here's my mobo info site: http://www.asrock.com/product/product_p4i45gv_r5.htm AsRock P4I45Gv Intel Chipsets Celeron D 2.40 Ghz DDR333 512mb ram 40GB HDD Western Digital Geforce FX 256MB/128bit

I just ran through your motherboard's manual and unfortunately your card is not on the official supported list of 8X cards posted (see below).

List of lists

Flashing the bios may not get the results you want. Besides the risk you run of winding up with an exspecive door prop if you muck it up. I would see about doing a trade up at where you bought the vid card. And hi there sabertooth. Long time no see. I may be crazy, but I'm not stupid...

go to display properties, settings tab, click advanced, go to geforce fx tab, performance and quality settings and you should be able to change it here. if that dont work update driver and try angain Please keep us updated so we know if we helped you or not.
