They should work with your board - in fact Tyan provides them with the
boards and also links to them for download for your particular board.... The
drivers are more than just a registry entry so I'm a little unsure as to how
restoring yours managed to fix the problems you saw when you installed them!
Sometimes people have had problems when choosing to install the agp driver
in 'turbo' mode (basically 4x) so you could try installing it in standard
mode....
