Mate you can have it for nothing. It's sat in my old base unit in the airing cupboard. I took delivery of my new pc today, and it has that new fangled pci-e rubbish so will never be able to use it even if i wanted to.

i will buy you a pint if our paths ever cross again.  is it small enough to fit in a jiffy bag?

my mobo is AGP, i don't want to go through the rigmorale of buying another AGP card when the better stuff is all PCI-E now. i need to rebuild my machine anyway

A pint would be nice, but seriously mate, forget about it. I don't want anything.

Yeah it will get in a jiffy bag, pm me your address and i'll try and get it off tomorrow.

Barry likes giving stuff away for free in jiffy bags. He even delivers it by hand if you ask nicely.  :D

If you have any problems with that one I am sure I have loads sat here if you need it Sonic, 128mb and 256mb AGP's all the PC's I make now are PCI-E and if one works when I take it out I generally keep it.

Any probs just PM me and we can sort one.

finally arrived yesterday, no thanks to the fucking cunts at royal mail.

sadly it doesn't appear to be a graphics card problem, so i'd assume it must be the AGP slot itself?

cheers anyway bazza!

what's the problem?

I thought I had a graphics problem when I put my machine together as there was no signal output, but it was the memory.

Incidentally I got a couple of BSODs the last 2 days. For some reason my graphics drivers had messed up  :?
