Playing SH3 with A8V Deluxe & ATI Cards.

Hi all, I had problems with my system rebooting when ever I tried playing 3D games especially SH3, I have an Asus A8V Deluxe motherboard and ATI Radeon 9800 Pro AGP card, after a lot of researching various forums etc & experimenting have found that these motherboards have problems with other ATI AGP cards.
If you are having problems then this is most likely the fix:
The problem is not with the Asus motherboards but the VIA AGP driver, simply run the supplied ASUS CD, select VIA 4in1 driver program, then select normal installation (not express) then make sure the AGP ONLY is ticked, continue to next screen and tick on uninstall AGP driver, then continue & will ask to reboot system, that's it. 3D games should now run fine!

Cheers.
