I have a NVIDIA GeForce4 MX 440 with AGP8X, is there anyway to force the water reflection effect to be to it's highest even if the card is not compatible with it?
Because I can put all other visual options beyond the recommened and was still able to finish the whole game with out the glitch, but I still remember missing out on the magnifisent water effects that I have heard about.

Please Help....

No you can't. It only works at it's best on Dx 9 cards. Yours isn't a DX 9 card. That would be like trying to drive 120mph on a straight road with a card that only goes 50.
 
No, that would be like trying to drive 120mph on a straight road without a car. Get a Direct X 9 card, like radeon 9800 pro.

Yeah I missed the reflections too, but now I bought a Radeon 9550 (I know it's not the best around but good price to quality; and I OCed it to R9600Pro) and can enjoy DX9 effects. The only problem is, the stuttering is very annoying now (opposed to the slight on my GF4MX440) and the levels load soooo loooong (I measured once - over 5 minutes and not to load the game from the begginning, but to load the next part of the level). I've got a 2,8Ghz Pentium so I guess that's no it, must be my 256MB RAM :/. Will turning to DX 8.1 make things better?
