How to change AGP from 1x to 2x?

[someone]

How do I change my video card from using 1x to 2x? And powerstrip doesn't work, it only freezes up windows.

Same question here. I have SY-6VBA133 and a 2X AGP board but CPUID and SiSoft Sandra reports only 1X. I e-mailed Soyo yesterday. Anybody? Thanks.

If everything is working fine, it should default to the higher speed. You could try using different driver revisions, which might enable / disable AGP2X.

Which video card do you own????

If you're using a Cretive board, download AGPwizard, this should enable agp2x, if supported of course.

Guillemot tech support told me my Banshee is 1X. But when I tried the Vanta, which is supposedly 2X/4X, CPUID and Sandra still shows 1X.

Probably you have already your agp set to 2x, but your system information programs, might not detect it well..., so they show the default: 1x.

Other thing, banshee isn't even an AGP card, it's more like a PCI card into an AGP slot...(happens the same with v3)
