How do I enable AGP in SL? When I look under options it's shadowed out, but I KNOW I have an AGP card, in an AGP slot at 8x (ATI Radeon 9600 256MB). This is with the WINDOWS client on WINDOWS. (Not Linux or any other OS).

(Not Linux or any other OS). This has been discussed many many many times, please use the search option for this forum. All ATI cards have the AGP option turned off for 2 reasons, 1) they are unstable with it on and 2) those who actualy hacked the settings file and forced it on found no preformance gains. There are some who say it does make an improvent but do it at your own risk. /111/4c/104977/1.html _____________________

I did do a search however the term ATI and AGP are too short and are ignored by the search thus when searching Enable AGP support on ATI it will only search for "Enable, support".

You just have to go by what Striker said:
* This feature is disabled for all ATI cards. * There is no supported way to enable the feature. * Having the feature disabled will not make a noticeable impact on your performance. |
