Smartgart

[r.hedberg]

In ATI's smartgart, AGP state and fast write is off,
but games are playable in (non) fullscreen.
Might it be better if AGP or fast write enabled ?
How may I enabled these ?

I'm using win2k sp4
intel 733 MHz
graphic is radeon 7500
catalyst is 04.8 (package 8.042-040803a-016701C)
MMC is 9.1
This is my best software combination so far.

Thanks for any precisions.

You need to install a "gart" driver, which is unique to the motherboard
chipset, not the graphics card. Most graphics cards have loaders for the
various makes of chipset on the installation cd-rom.

in every tweak guide Ive seen with the Radeon family, they all say to
disable fast-writes. Not sure on the technical reasoning, but google should
answer that for you.
