VIAAGPI.SYS on VIA AGP

[stu1]

I have just done a repair to XP via the CD.
Half way through the operation I received this message:

File Needed: VIAAGPI.SYS on VIA AGP Filter Driver Disk

It gave me the option to browse for the file, I did, could not find it
so I clicked cancel, ,
But it continued with repair. At the end of it, I received
this message:
The graphics card is a NVIDIA GeForce4 MX GPU
I have looked all over the web but can't find a fix .
Thanks in advance .

You'll need to find out what chipset you have on the motherboard and download the chipset drivers for it off VIA's website. A program like [google]PC Wizard[/google] can do the job for telling you what chipset you have in most cases. Or, the motherboard manual can as well.

A few things you can do to speed it up, cull anything in the startup that isnt mission critical (start>run>'msconfig')

Defrag, then install Bootvis and optimise the boot performance.

Might be less hassle than a full re-install :)
