Motherboard/Graphics Card

[awelsh]

Heres the deal, after looking for ages for drivers for my Graphics card (ATI Radeon 2400HD 512MB GDDR2 64-Bit AGP) it looks to me asif the motherboard cannot be used with the card

Ive read on the side of the box in the small print (AGP 8X Compliant Motherboard)

And on CPU-Z it shows my motherboard as being AGP 4X

How much would it roughly cost me to get a new motherboard for the PC?

Thanks

I want one that supports AGP 8x, Pentium 4 processor, 1 HDD, 2 dvd drives, floppy drive, and anything else etc

I can't find any with AGP, only PCI-E. Your gonna have to check ebay for some second hand ones.

Same here, but I had a look on google and theres been multiple posts saying that all 8x cards work with 4x MOBO's anyway :S

Mine was working before but would them go unresponsive when loading a game.

So im guessing that im the unlucky one with a MOBO than doesnt do this?

More info:

I have looked online and the card states that is it AGP 4X/8X bus interface compatible.

So it must work with 4x MOBO's ill have to go to a local place and see if they can get it installed correctly, if not then its off to pc world -.-

Thats whats been said, buy my card always went unresponsive when playing games etc. It would popup saying this:

If you have tried re-installing the drivers, I would say that it's a faulty card.
