Which AGP are you using? There is the kernel AGP, and the nVidia driver's
NvAGP. The nVidia driver does not like the kernel AGP, if you've built
your own kernel disable AGP support (this will only effect the kernel's
implementation, not the nVidia one), if you're using a prebuilt kernel
either remove the AGP module or tell the nVidia driver to disable AGP
altogether.
