I did not see an option in my BIOS, is there a boot option or sysctl variable which can be set? The aperature size is also lower than 256MB so I am not sure this pr[68518] relates to that pr[61739]. I have currently worked around the problem by installing freebsd on a different machine, rebuilding the kernel without AGP support and then swapping the harddrive into the offending machine. I am happy to continue working through the problem though. Thanks, Russ
