How to set AGP at 8x ?

S

Hi all
I have a motherboard and video card all set up to run at
AGP 8x. I've set the BIOS correctly, and have the latest
drivers installed.

When I use the NVidia utlity, it shows that under GPU and
Chipset the max AGP rate is 8x. However, under OS it
shows the max AGP rate as 2x.

Please tell me if this is correct for XP, or is there a
way to make XP run 8x AGP?

The video card is 128mB Ti4200.

many thanks

Have you installed the latest drivers from www.nvidia.com or are you
relying with ones that came with your copy of Windows?
