Hello all,

First of all this is my PC spec:

ASRock P4i45 GV motherboard
512MB DDR400
GeForce FX5200

My problem is my AGP card is running on PCI mode.I've checked the Device
Manager and my AGP locate in PCI bus 3,device 0, function 0. I don't know
what hell is happen because I've installed the latest chipset drivers from
Intel that support my motherboard chipset and set my BIOS to using AGP
as primary display but still the same (I've also try to set the BIOS to default setting).
I've read the motherboard manual bookand it's say that my motherboard can
support AGP 8x card. Until now I still confuse about it.....

Can someone solve this problem....?

NOTE : sorry for my bad english.

There is no such thing, it's just the software that calls the AGP port a PCI bus, as long as it works fine you shouldn't worry.

All of the FX cards say that, my FX 5900 says it too, and I know there wasn't a PCI version of that card. It's running in AGP mode, don't worry about it.

first,set as primary display port the agp.
second,install the agp driver from your motherboard`s or vga`s support cd.
without this driver the card will work in pci mode.
