I am not sure, but I though nVidia cards were different. I have used a tnt2 before I had my radeon (I used it with that previous motherboard) and back then, I have been advised to compile kernels without AGP support since the nVidia drivers wouldn't use them anyway (despite the fact that it was a 4x agp card). NVidia seems to have his own method of accessing the agp bus. -- Frank Van Damme | "Saying 8MB of RAM doesn't do as much anymore is http://www. | like saying a gallon of water holds more than it openstandaarden.be | did in 1988." --George Adkins
