Why is that? Anyone know? (See attached image) I have an AGP Radeon 9000. That would be why. SL doesn't play well with ATI/Radeon graphic cards. Please see here for the fix https://secondlife.com/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=AGP+card+running+in+PCI+mode _____________________

Doesn't work for me =[ ATI removed the tab it speaks of and made some new "ATI Control Center" crap in its place, for me, any ways. |

Or Intel cards =P Or various S3 cards I hear, either =D
For being OpenGL-based I'm surprised the compatibility quality is so devastatingly low... =( |

Intel cards - S3 cards = best used for office pc's, not for games, or 3d sorry, and usually use shared memory with main memory even worse.
They are just to to bad , horrible things. ~.~ |

I have a PCI Express 16X card and it still shows you can check the option for AGP. Should I enable it or not?

I have the same thing, and I heard that everyone with an ATI card cannot enable the AGP function. which is a HORRIBLE disapointment, as theoretically HALF the users are on ATI.
Why they dont support it , i donno.. maybe they dotn want ATI customers playing SL? |

It is not worth enabling..
I force enabled it in SL, and it was slower then when it was off.. So not worth turning on anyways  I get 20+ FPS just as most nvidia people, don't crash often, so this option does not do much for ATI anyways. |
