Question AGP vs. AGP Pro?

I bought a SOYO SY-P4X400 Dragon Ultra mobo and am confused as to whether an AGP Pro (8x) slot is compatible with all other AGP video cards. Is there a compatibility issue?

I'm using a Leadtek Winfast A180 DDR TDH (8x) video card.

Thanks in advance.

You can use a regular AGP card in a AGP Pro slot.

Thanks. I went back to Fry's and looked at the other boards and saw the tape over the slot that is used for AGP Pro boards.

If you're not using a AGP Pro card(and it looks like you aren't), then don't remove the tape; if you do, the card could shift in the slot and unseat itself.
