K7 Master with Ti4400?

Noid, Thanks for the information! I wish I had tested it out in 4X AGP mode sooner. I am in contact with MSI and will try to get them to exchange it or give credit toward another board.

K7 Master with Ti4400?

I have a PNY Ti4400 that works fine at 2X AGP, but that will lock up at 4x AGP in my MSI K7 Master MB. I was wondering if anyone here has an MSI K7 Master and 4X AGP card, especially a Ti4400? If so, how is it working for you?

Problems with PNY Ti4400 (long)

Problems with PNY Ti4400 (long)

Keys, I do have another PC, but it is older than the one I am using now. It uses an Abit BM6 motherboard. I will have to look into what type of AGP slot it has, since PNY claims that an AGP 1.0 slot won't cut it. That was the only reason I haven't tried the card in the older PC. But, I will...
