Hey no I was having trouble with the video jerky and it was ready for clean
install of windows and then it would't the let agp card install,pulled the
case and all the caps look good, no jumpers or bios has changed
I have another one of these boards and the last pci slot went bad on it and
have to move the network card up one slot!!!I don't want to change
everything to one computer 1 for surf and 1 for games!!!

You need:

1) Chipset drivers. The so-called Intel INF chipset drivers.
With an older chipset, you cannot use the latest and greatest
driver. downloadfinder.intel.com is where you find them.

This page might be the place to get one. I selected 815, based
on the type of your Northbridge chip. When this file is installed,
the AGP port should be properly enumerated. (The Windows installer
likely has chipset drivers as well, but try these anyway.)


http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scripts-df-external/Product_Filter.aspx?ProductID=179&lang=eng
INFINST.EXE  (1541KB) 6.3.0.1007 12/16/2004

2) Now, try to install the video card drivers.
If you have an older card, the latest Nvidia driver is not
necessarily the best one.

(The latest one would be here)
http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp

(Older versions are here. Pick your OS from the returned list.)
http://www.nvidia.com/page/search.html?keywords=archive

(This site also keeps Nvidia drivers.)
http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?id=10

The way I do this, is I google based on the model information
for the video card. The video card users will swear by a certain
version or versions, and these are the older drivers I would try
out.

3) Some version of DirectX would be handy. Really modern video cards
will have a minimum DirectX version to be used with them.
Usually, that minimum version of DirectX is on the video card CD.

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/directx/default.aspx

If you are still having problems, like step (2) is failing, get
a copy of Everest Home Edition, and look in Devices, to see
if your video card is visible to the OS or not. (Everest was
formerly known as AIDA32.) That is about all I can think of.

Hey I ran that test program and in the sensor place one of voltages was way
out 2.5 was checking 1.4 the rest was within a .1 of value called for!!!
recheck the caps all looks good no leaks on the tops or side and i see
nothing at bottom!
there is voltage reg near the agp port could it be defective???
thanks for all your help

These are readings copied from the manual. Vagp is not listed
here, so it is possible that Everest has mis-identified one
of the voltages.

VCORE 1.792 V <--- Used by the core of the processor
VGTL 1.472 V <--- Used for processor I/O (gunning transistor logic)
VCC3 3.264 V <--- 3.3V ? Not sure if this is from PSU or not.
+ 5V 5.053 V <--- 5V from PSU
+12V 12.096V <--- +12V from PSU
- 12V -12.280 V <--- -12V from PSU
5VSB(V) 4.999 V <--- +5V standby (when comp sleeps) from PSU
VBAT(V) 3.216 V <--- CMOS coin cell (>2.4V is good)

There is a limit as to how much diagnosis is possible with
the tools at hand.

Can Everest "see" the AGP video card ? Did Everest read
any config info from the AGP slot ?

What is the brand/model number of the AGP video card you
are having trouble with ?
