    Use PCIlist for Win98 or use Powerstrip for Win2K (this is the shareware version). Enjoy

          If you are refering to the tweak utility from matrox, STOP USING IT coz it will force to 1x.
          Which motherboard are u using ? Not all motherboard chipsets are able to go 4x.
          By default the drivers 5.30 or even 5.52 will set it to 2x.
          You will need to change registry key to enable 4x. Refer to previous threads about how to go about changing the registry.
          Regards.

              I have not used the tweak utility before.
              Anyway if you know how to modify registry, under
              HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Servic es\Class\Display\0000\Settings\CPU
              AGPFlags= -2

              This will switch it into 4x. Or AGPFlags= -1 will put it in 2x.
              Backup your registry before changing and pls don't hold me responsible for any damage
              Frankly speaking, i don't see any performance difference between 2x & 4x.

              You might want to reconsider changing to p3v4x as it's based on VIA Apollo chipset. There are a few threads about VIA chipset problems with G400. You might want to refer to this http://forums.murc.ws/ubb/Forum5/HTML/008445.html

              Regards.
