Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

^thats not true. i ran my 9800Pro and my current x800 with fast writes on forever and had zero problems.
keep fast writes on unless you experience stabilty issues.

I had a problem with my 9700p crashing to 640x480 with something like 4 bit colour, with fastwrites enabled. My 6800GT however, runs fine with it.
^Best advice.
Having AGP fast writes on causes my device drivers to fail, i get that 0000000000a error IRQ_not equal nonsense. I turn it off and everything works well, I have isolated the issue to that. I have the VIA chipset, i remember reading a long time ago that it had a issue with fast writes on some cards.
On the bright side i can enable 1 WS on the card and still be stable, although i'm not overclocking.
So i fully agree with that last statement, if fast writes are stable leave them on. If they are unstable and give you BSOD like mine does, turn it off.
Easy.
