84136 2002-09-30 00:14:00 Thanks for that, im downloading them now.

I did some research. my chipset is VP3/MVP3 and it says at viaarena.com at the FAQ's

Question: I cannot get my AGP card to work on my MVP3 or MVP4 chipset based board.

Answer: MVP3 and MVP4 chipset based boards are now considered to be old design boards and in many instances are only designed for AGP rev.1 specifications. There are therefore compatability issues with newer AGP cards on some MVP3 and MVP4 based motherboards. This varies between brands and models. For more information, visit the VIA Arena information database.

can u get around this or will it simply not work? ill try the drivers once they are downloaded.

thanks

take a look at this .

. orcon . net . nz/beef/dxdiag . jpg" target="_blank">ctmclan . orcon . net . nz

now my card is a 3D Prophet 4000 xt 32 meg Kyro .

am i wondering why it doesn't say 32 megs of video ram .

i have all the latest drivers installed .

runnning on AMD Duron 900 mhz . 192 ram . yes motherboard drivers are installed . win 98 se .

and then why it doesn't have AGP Texturing test available there . .

it is it because i need to reinstalled 8 . 1 direct x?

and then this picture says i have 32 meg .

84143 2002-09-30 11:36:00 the agp texturing test dosn't appear with the latest directx 8.1. the only time i had it was with dx8.0 (i think) as far as the ram goes ms dx does say "approx ram".

provided its running ok i wouldn't worry about it.

the kyro's work in an interesting way but unforunatly have had more than their fair share of driver problems
