GF 6200A AGP 8X problem

I have a problem with my GeForce 6200A AGP 8x card.
I can't run it without artifacts in AGP 8x mode but runs perfect in AGP 4x mode!
I change the AGP rate with RivaTuner.

Also, the particles (smokes etc.) works great in AGP 8x but the textures are messed up!

Anyone know how to fix this?? I have a VIA motherboard with PT800 (n-bridge) and VT8237 (s-bridge). I tried old and new Hyperion drivers but no luck. It runs perfectly in PCI mode but slow.
 
The 6200 isnt a high performing card, so theres really no difference in 4 or 8x mode. I would have it set to Auto or Default if theres an option for it, but if not, have it set to 4x.
 
Yeah, the 6200 doesn't require the bandwidth that 8X gives anyway, so it doesn't really matter. I know this because my FX5200 gets the same score in 3dmark no matter if its running in 4X or 8X mode.
 
Dude, it's AGP and it doesn't have TurboCache and fastwrite on or off are the same.

What does AGP have to do with Turbocache or fastwrite? My FX5200 was AGP and it supported fastwrite. Turbocache means that some of the RAM can be allocated to graphics texturing, AGP models support them too.
