Ok well first of all, I have an AGP ATI Radeon 9800 Pro 128MB video card with the Omega drivers installed (based on the Catalyst 3.6 drivers).

NEVERMIND!!  LOL it was actually the Omega drivers that helped me.  In the advanced SMARTGART options I had it set for PCI write and read with AGP write and read set to off.  I simply reversed it and BINGO problem solved!

uhhh, I think I am stuck in the same scenario :'(  It turns out that I can shut off the PCI read and wright, and I can turn on the AGP read, but not the AGP Wright!!! What the hell?  Any suggestions, I am using the catelist 3.8 drivers since I have heard some bad stuff with lowering of frame rates on the 3.9

Hope somone can help

Is your Card in PCI mode? You can check this on the active Desktop/Customize my desktop/settings/advanced.
If your settings say "Bus:     PCI mode" then you need to install your motherboard AGP drivers.
 This is what mine said and this was installed by 'proffesionals' at a computer shop. I wonder what they thought the point of an Fx 5600 if its not running AGP mode!
Heres how it should look (depending on what speed bus you have)
