Geforce 4 Ti 1X AGP

My Geforce 4 Ti graphics card keeps showing up as running at 1X AGP when it should be a 4X AGP.

Has anyone else got this on the new drivers or have i genuinly f***ed up my pc???? :) :) :)

If your mb support 4X AGP , then you can change the setting to auto or specifically to 4X in the BIOS . Try it , it may works .

ill have a look

i know it supports 2X because my previous graphics card was that :) :) :)

Whats your mobo m8?

If it doesn't support at least AGP4X then i'm surprised it even works at all.

Watch your AGP voltage though... as you could screw up your card and/or mobo.

Doesn't 4X AGP support backward 1X , 2X etc. AGPs???:rolleyes:

I'm confused Pirate... :confused:

Geforce 4 Ti range need at least AGP4X (1.5v). The older 2X cards require 3.3v, and are a different slot completely.

If you try to fit a Ti card into a system without 1.5v 4X support, you can screw up the mobo & possibly the GFX card too.

Lets wait for BodwadUK, and see what board he has!

It's just occured to me... I saw a van earlier with bodwadUK on it! Wierd! :p

I have Asus (featured release;) ) , it has the ability to disable compatiability problems (like this one here) . I dunno what they call it but I'm safe anywasy .:D

Where did you see that van??? :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:


The PC is an Advent i would have to take it apart to find out the MB No??????? :confused:


The GFX card works fine and it does support 2X i beleive. I have had my old rage 128 running at 2X so i know the MB supports it.

Would upgrading the drivers or bios possibly fix the problem???:confused: :confused:

The van was in Cannock, nr me! I was amazed! :)

Geforce 4 Ti ranges don't support 2X AGP, only 4X and above.

Staffordshire??? Was it a company then??? :confused: :confused: :confused:


I will have to check when i get home :) :) :)

My PC (Its Crapper Than i thought :eek: :eek:)

My GFX (I Think)

I was wrong its a max 2X AGP on MB but the GFX card does support 2X :) :) :) :)

1x (266Mbps) (8 bytes per two clock cycles)
2x (533Mbps) (8 bytes per clock cycle)
4x (1.07Gbps) (16 bytes per clock cycle)

The Advent site has an error m8. It's a Gigabyte 7IXE not 71XE. It only supports AGP2X (AGP 1.0).

It is vital you flash your mainboard to F7 revision. Watch out for the secondary IDE controller... it's very very fragile. I have one running with an Athlon 650, and Redhat won't install on the secondary IDE controller at all!

I stand corrected about the GFX card though m8, although don't mistake AGP 2.0 as AGP2X. AGP 2.0 simply means it can support 1X, 2X & 4X AGP. AGP1.0/1.1 support only AGP1X&2X (3.3v).

P.S Be sure to upgrade your chipset drivers though... cause the 761 chipset range has had some major updates since 1999.

Don't worry about it running at 2x AGP though - I doubt there would be any performance difference if you could do 4x AGP on such an old computer.

Thankyou i will have a look :) :) :)
