Subject:	SCOUG-Help: Installing ati 9550 AGP card

I just bought an ATI 9550 video card which provides AGP 4X and 8X to
install in my ASUS A7V333 motherboard. It has a via KT333 chipset which
supports AGP 2X and 4X. I am assuming the two will work together at 4X.
Is that assumption correct?

Naturally ASUS and ATI supply drivers for only Windows. My video driver
is Scitech build level 0.099.

The ATI manual says I need a display driver AND a motherboard driver. It
also says I should uninstall the driver (Scitech in my case) for my
existing Matrox Millenium card and reinstall the driver after installing
the AGP card.

Does the Scitech driver provide the equivalent of a graphics driver and a
motherboard driver? Do I need to uninstall and reinstall as ATI
recommends?

TIA in advance for advice.

Jack
