How to determine
what motherboard
chipset is present
on your system
Installing the Hardware and Software
Install the latest AGP chipset driver for your
motherboard.
•
Each motherboard requires the installation of a
custom-built virtual GART (AGP) driver. This
chipset driver is required by your FireGL card to
function correctly with your motherboard.
•
You must install the correct AGP chipset driver
before installing the FireGL card in your system.
•
Contact your supplier or motherboard/chipset
manufacturer to obtain and install the latest AGP
chipset driver for your motherboard.
An incorrect or missing chipset driver can result in
AGP memory not being detected or a black screen
after Windows® starts.
•
Right-click My Computer and select Properties.
•
Click the Hardware tab and select Device
Manager.
•
Scroll to the bottom of the device list. Select
System devices.
•
Scroll through the list of System devices until
you find a listing for the AGP controller.
•
The chipset manufacturer's name will appear as
the device name.
