AGP Drive Strength

Common Options : Auto, Manual

Quick Review

This BIOS feature allows you to set whether the AGP controller should dynamically adjust the AGP driving strength or allow manual configuration by the BIOS.

Normally it is recommended that you set this feature to Auto. The AGP drive strength values will be provided by the auto-compensation circuitry. However, manual configuration of the AGP drive strength may be necessary to get certain AGP 4X/8X cards to work properly.

To correct such compatibility problems, you should set the AGP Drive Strength to Manual. This allows you to manually set a higher AGP Drive Strength value via the AGP Drive Strength P Ctrl and AGP Drive Strength N Ctrl options.

Please note that this feature is a little different from AGP Driving Control because it usually comes with two to four different drive strength controls. The AGP Driving Control feature only comes with a single drive strength control.
