K8N-E and ATI Radeon 9600xt - Smartgart says AGP is off

[News]

I just bought a Asus K8N-E board, installed XP and installed a new Radeon
9600xt. Everything seems to work ok but when I looked into the ATI Catalyst
Control Center under SmartGart, it tells me under 'set AGP' that it is in
the off position. All attempts to set it to 4 or 8 after a reboot - it goes
back to 'OFF'.

Any solution for this? I can not find a place to set the AGP speed on the
motherboard. Is there any third part program I can run to check if it is
really off? or just a faulty report by the control center?

Thanks for the assistance.

Mike

Have you got the chipset drivers installed?
