Well, no. There are motherboards with AGP + ISA slots that are AGP X 1, AGP
X 2, and AGP X 4 ( and perhaps even AGP X 8.)

Nvidia site unhelpful and mentions only AGP 8x - can anyone here tell me
if this card is backwards compatible with earlier AGP revisions - I've a
friend whose old machine just failed and she's replaced the video card
with the FX5200. It doesn't work (at all), but I don't know if there's a
fault elsewhere or if the AGP spec of the motherboard is too old for the
video card. Gah, dontcha love remote diagnosis?


It would probably help if you posted what m/b make and model she's using.


I've no idea, other than it's a Viglen and it has ISA slots - therefore it
is most likely the original AGP spec.
