hello,

i run my system with a nvidia fx 5900xt, xp2500+, asus a7v8x-8(via kt400). yesterday i reinstall my windows cause some software problems.

now i get a problem with my v-card. on the pic u see what i mean. my board, gpu support agp Skull only the "BS (windows XPSP2)" dont support it. i try with fast write enable/disable, other nvidia forceware (actual 77.72), other via 4 in 1 driver -> but still that agp 2x mode. the bios is actual and all windows updates are installed!

before i reinstall windows, all works fine with agp Skull! but with this 2x crap all is soooo slow Sad
to see this option on the forceware i use "coolbits 2.0" (its only a simply registry add)

i searched by google, there are some ppl with the same problem, but no realy answare. so i post here and hope someone can help.
the reason for that coolbits is, that all 3d games or programs switch my monitor to 60hz and that kill my eyes.

Probably a daft question, but have you installed the latest motherboard drivers (including AGP miniport driver)?

in new nvidia forceware page with refresh is dissable. Reinstal forceware 56.xx or use rivia tuner http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=163.

BTW. past in your cfg [code:1]seta r_displayRefresh "120"[/code:1] it fix refresh speed in q3.
