    Hello, I am currently having problems setting my AGP speed to 8x using the SmartGART™ slider in the ATI Catalyst control center. It says I have to retest the settings which would be done during a restart. Once back into windows, AGP speed is back to 0x. No matter what I try, it will not set at 8x or even 4x. The motherboard has no AGP speed selection in bios that i know of, just voltage settings(dont know anything about), AGP memory arpature (i think that what it is), and AGP/PCI priority. I have the most updated drivers for display and direct x. I am hoping to find a solution to this problem so I can get the best that I can out of this card. Any further questions, feel free to ask. Thank you.

    Don't worry, you'll learn. Hopefully you won't get to the point where you know your CD Key for Windows tho. ;)
