Non so se sono nella sezione giusta ma, trattando di specifiche dei chipset delle schede madri, dovrebbe andar bene...
Insomma, recentemente ho letto questo bollettino dal sito di Via riguardo all'opportunità di disinstallare il driver AGP di Via, lasciando il posto a quello fornito da Microsoft con l'SP2, nel caso si utilizzi una scheda madre che supporti le specifiche AGP 3.0/3.5
Quello di cui non sono sicuro è se la sostituzione del driver sia raccomandata solo per le schede che seguono le specifiche 3.5 o invece nel calderone sono accorpate anche le schede con specifiche 3.0
Voi che ne pensate?
Per chiarezza e correttezza riporto il bollettino qui sotto:
"Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) users - please note:
AGP driver recommendation:
To deliver a quality user experience, a universal standard for AGP drivers, UAGP35, is being adopted by all chipset vendors with AGP 3.5-capable hardware. VIA have worked with Microsoft on this issue for a long time and continue to do so. There are many VIA AGP3.0/3.5 devices which are supported in SP2. VIA's AGP driver contained in the latest Hyperion 4in1 drivers will work properly with Windows SP2, however, the default Microsoft driver is recommended. Please follow the advice below, depending on whether you are installing WinXP and SP2 on a clean system or installing SP2 on top of WinXP SP1.
Clean system install:
(1) Install Windows XP
(2) Install SP2
(3) Install VIA Hyperion 4in1 4.53 driver but untick the AGP driver so that it is not installed.
System Upgrade:
If your system already has Windows XPSP1 installed and the VIA Hyperion 4in1 4.53 driver then:
1) Install SP2
2) Install VIA Hyperion 4in1 4.53 driver
3) Uninstall the VIA AGP driver. Go to Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager > VIA CPU to AGP Controller > Driver > Uninstall.
4) Restart the PC. SP2 will automatically install the UAGP (Microsoft default driver).
By removing the VIA AGP driver you will then be using the recommended Microsoft default AGP driver from SP2.
More information:
Microsoft has initiated a standardized way of programming and manipulating the AGP driver. In summary, Microsoft are concerned that vendor-specific drivers may define different page table entry (PTE) formats for GART, choose different register layouts for their AGP target (motherboard) devices and invalid GART entries could cause AGP-related system instability, such as memory corruption. Detailed information can be found here. VIA continuously works with Microsoft to provide the best possible experience for users of both products. "
