Hi all, first time poster here!
I have a question for anyone who's got an answer. I have recently upgraded my graphics card from a 64MB Nvidia GeForce4MX 440 to my current Radeon 9600XT/256MB. I play Flight Simulator 2004 on my computer and was noticing that there wasn't that much of an increase in performance with the new card So I asked one of my flying buddies who's a hardware techie to look at my system report.
He noticed that my AGP aperture size is at 64MB instead of a larger number whatever it should be??? I have an "Asus P4SD-LA" motherboard and just updated my BIOS recently.
Thing is, is that there's no way that I can find to "open" up the aperture to make it bigger, I couldn't do this in the original BIOS settings and can't do it in these BIOS settings either If anyone on here knows how to make this work so that I just didn't waste 200 bucks on a card please let me in on it?
I'm not that versed in computer lingo so you may have to bear with me on some stuff. Thanks and have a great day/evening/night whichever applies. groudon39
