I had a bizarre Visiontek AGP HD 2600 Pro graphics card that only worked properly with the driver specifically provided on the Visiontek website. Any other driver, such as those provided on the ATI website, would fail to use the AGP bus and instead use PCI.
I was thankful to have DXDIAG which indicated the issue to me by having ‘AGP Hardware Acceleration’ greyed out.

DxDiag is too nerdy and complicated, real ones used the Experience Score.
