As I understand there are no AGP-only motherboards for core2duo. Yes i have a weird mobo that has both AGP and PCI. The nvidia is an AGP one. The mobo wasn't my choise :( but when the changed the false cpu with a dual core they didn't want to change the graphics card as well. Can this mobo create problems? > Another thought: Sometimes the CPU cooler is not entirely seated, resulting > in bad thermal contact of the heatsink/CPU assembly.
