AMD 761 & sapphire 9600 pro dilema
Ok, I'm having problems with my Gigabyte GA-7DX+ (BIOS F7)
and my sapphire 9600 pro. First of all, here's my system:
AthlonXP 1800
Hercules FortissimoIII 7.1 soundcard
Sapphire 9600pro
3x256 (768) PC2100 CL2.5
Gigabyte GA-7DX+ BIOS revision F7
CompUSA 300w PSU
WindowsXP SP2
Directx 9.0c
Everything is @ stock clocks & voltages. Temperatures are fine (checked all of them). I've tried Catalyst 4.7, 4.8, & 4.9b to no avail. I've tried the built-in Microsoft AGP drivers for my AMD761 chipset and I also tried the latest (5.33) AGP drivers from http://www.amd.com. AMD says that windowsXP has all the drivers already for my motherboard. AGP is set to 4x with fastwrites enabled (I've tried it with disabled too) and still getting problems. I've re-installed XP twice. The problem, you may ask?
I seem to be able to run Direct3d apps ok but OpenGL apps do not work! At all! I tried installing the AGP driver first and then Catalyst, and vice versa. Another problem I'm having is random crashes (computer's still on but screen turns off). My 9600pro works great in both my friends' computers (VIA KM266 & KM400) but doesn't seem to work with mine. When I run dxdiag, under the display tab everything is enabled EXCEPT AGP texture acceleration (I'm assuming this is the meat of the problem). From all hints it seems like it's a chipset driver issue but I've tried 2 different chip. driver versions with no luck. Doom3 won't run and crashes with this error:

I also tried Humus's OpenGL demos and they don't work either, but his D3d ones work great. So do the two dxdiag display tests.
I hope this post is detailed enough.
TIA! (thanks in advance)
