Just been benchmarking with Sisoft Sandra, which claimed I don't have AGP
enabled. Checked Smartgart and got the same thing- no matter whether I drag
the smartgart slider up to 4x or 8x, or whether I change the BIOS setting
from Auto to 4x or 8x, the smartgart reads Off and so does Sandra.

What gives?

(card is 9600SE)

LOL, hope it's always going to be this easy. Thanks.

Embarrassment aside, it made bugger all difference to my 3dmark01 score.
