ATi SMARTGART settings save method and application.
For you who ever had a problem with ATi Radeon graphic cards like 9600, 9550 and the rest, one solution is to disable automatic "ATI smart" utility at boot time. Run services.msc and disable the ATI smart utility. This is the automatic detection of your appropriate AGP settings which can be of course wrong. If you change the "SMARTGART" settings in CATALYST driver for example, you will be asked to restart your computer. If you do it, your changed settings will take no effect is the SMART utility is run again. It will over-erase them :D. If you do not make a restart, your settings will take effect. It happens that if the ATi card is unstable and resets occur, etc, it is due to AGP write being disabled and AGP read enabled. [This is wrong and ill from the principles of communication... If you want to make a call, would you like to speak to microphone on the telephone (bus), but listen to speaker that is placed in the other end of the room, on a different bus, like the TV for example?]
So:
1. disable "ATI smart" utility after you run services.msc
2. run smartgart (maybe type in command prompt smartgart and press ENTER)
3. change settings (you changed the settings in BIOS already, right?)
4. play desired game on which you test the settings.
