AGP2.0/AGP3.0

[wimberley2001]

I am running Windows XP Pro service pack 3. Every time I start my system up
and log in I get a "New Hardware Found" bubble containing the message "VIA
CPU to AGP2.0/AGP3.0". Could someone tell me why?

Without knowing more about your system, I would hazard a guess that you
would need to upgrade either a motherboard driver, or a video driver. Open
the hardware manager (right click on the My Computer Icon, select
properties, then click on the hardware tab). Does anything show a yellow
triangle with an exclamation point?

This message appears to be caused by the AGP slot on the motherboard.
Sometime has change and you should install / re-install VIA chipset /
AGP slot drivers. Locate the VIA Hyperion drivers.

Ok Roy I followed your directions and there are no yellow triangles. What
should I do next.

Where can I find the driver?

Select the OS, then "Chipset or Platform driver"

Look for your chipset in the two download options offered.
It could be you'll be using "VIA Hyperion Pro Driver Package"

To see what chipset is on your motherboard, under Windows you
can run CPUZ. The download is in the upper left hand corner.

See the "Mainboard" tab for details on the chipset. In this
sample screenshot, the chips is SIS662. Yours will be a
VIA chipset.
