AGPGART is a feature of the motherboard chipset that allows a 3D 
graphics card to access the main RAM directly:

ServerWorks is a manufacturer of motherboard chipsets for server 
systems:

Do I need to explain "unsupported"?

If you don't need 3D accelerated graphics on this system, you can 
ignore the message.
