Geforce MX and AGP2X
Hi, I have a Geforce with a VIA 2X AGP on Windows 2000. I have got 6. 31 drivers with via 4 in 1. I have tried everything but i can't get the agp working. The DXDIAG says the agp is working but there is no difference with AGP or Without AGP (tested by 3D Mark).
Hi,

The DXDIAG says the agp is working but there is no difference with AGP or Without AGP (tested by 3D Mark). Also I checked it using Direct X 8. It doesn't run the AGP Texturing Test.
AGP texturing test results: Failure at step 41 (Creating AGP Surface): HRESULT = 0x8876017c (unknown error)
My system is:
PIII 450
128 RAM
2X VIA AGP
128 MB AGP Aperature (tried on 64 too)
Asus 7100 Geforce MX
Please help me.
Thanks..

Your AGP apeture setting should always be 1/2 of your ram, 64 megs in your case.
What m/b do you have? And do you have the latest BIOS installed? Is everything setup right in the BIOS settings? If your getting that error, then those are the first thing I'd look at.
Secondly, do you have a sb live card? Remove the card and all it's drivers if you do. Then remove your video drivers (in add/remove) and remove your via 4in1 (run the setup again). Then reinstall the 4in1 and then the 6.31 certified drivers. Only after you verify everthing's working, try and install the live card again.

Hi,
Firstly, I already had the MS VIA patch.
Secondly, I have a SB Live! I removed it from my computer and uninstalled the drivers. Then I removed NVIDIA drivers. Then the VIA 4 in 1. Then reinstalled VIA and then NVIDA drivers.
Now it is still the same. Now, what can I do?
Secondly, when I install VIA drivers, it doesn't ask me for AGP 2X. It says, it will install the following:
VxD Drivers
Inf 1.02
then when I click next, it says
Install AGP4X/KT133
Uninstall AGP4X/KT133
well, since uninstall wouldn't do anything i choose agp4x/kt133 and install the driver fine. I think this is the problem. My motherboard (QDI Legend BrillianX 8V) supports 2X but this is 4X.
Please help!

Download Powerstrip from www.entechtaiwan.com and select agp2x manually from 'Windows Details'.
My BP6 is s'posed to support agp2x, but I can only get it running in agp1x. PowerStrip sussed it for me.
Good Luck

Guys,
I mentioned above that I could get AGP texturing in DXDIAG. Also the 32MB Texture Rendering Test wont work in 3DMARK 2001 V1.1, which clearly shows my agp is not working.
I have tried all the above but couldn't get it to work. The error for DirectX 8 is reported above.
Please help.
