AGP Error

Once I run the program it goes to windowed mode and a black background. Then it says "Not Enough AGP Memory...ect". If i click cancel the error screen closes and then my comp freezes. If click Ok, then it gives me a screen telling me to reserve more data for my AGP in BIOS. I went to BIOS and dont see an option detailing that. I then decided to update my video card drivers. The only difference now is that it skips the error screen and proceeds to freeze up my comp. Any ideas? I'm using my crappy ATI vid card that came with the comp until I can repair my Nvidia.

I'm not sure what happened to my topic on this, but here's what I did to fix the problem:
I opened up Ryzom_recover [My Computer>C Drive>Program Files>Ryzom>Ryzom_recover], and patched the game. Manually restarted computer. Went into Ryzom_config [Start menu>Program Files>Ryzom>Ryzom_config], set it to Open_GL, and disabled vertex and pixel shaders. Launched game. It asked me if I wanted to switch to Direct3d. I said no. It told me I had an AGP problem, just as before. Asked me if I wanted to know the details, I said no. Game launched. Once in-game, I could immediately tell that the performance and display issues were better. The mouse was still clunky, so I went to Game, configuration, input, and mouse, and checked the "hardware" box. Now the game runs fine, and the mouse is highly usable.
In my opinion, your computer is crashing because you have it running in Direct3d, and you're probably getting the AGP memory problem because you have an ATI graphics card. To this day I get the AGP error message, but there's not a problem with my computer's memory, and there's probably not a problem with yours either. Just say "no" when it asks you if you want to know more, and it shouldn't crash if you have it in OpenGl.
