First off, here are my system specs.

Dell Dimension 8100
P4 1.7 Ghz
256MB RDRAM
AGP Geforce3 64MB DDR
Soundblaster Live
Windows ME

Thats it really....

Ok my problem is that my Geforce3(AGP) is running in PCI Mode and I can't figure out why. It should be running in the normal AGP Mode. I recently reformatted my hard disk and reinstalled Windows ME. Before the format, the card ran in AGP mode with no problems. Now its stuck in PCI Mode. I've installed the latest NVIDIA Detonantor drivers and I've tried messing with the IRQ assignments for the card but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Adjusted the AGP Apeture(sp?) in the BIOS to 256MB and now it runs fine in AGP mode. Problem solved.
