How to force AGP 2x on VIA MVP3 super 7

B.T.W. my hardware definitely supports 2x on mobo + card as specs. say so
and it did until reinstall of WinDOZE 95 B

How do you do it?  I was told to set the registry path:

HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG\Display\Fonts\Settings\AGP to '2X'

However, it was already 2X but SANDRA reports the AGP to be 1x with sideband
enabled (VIA AGP gart reinstall in turbo / normal have no effect either).

Please could someone help me as I have noticed a drop in performance on 1x

THIS IS WHAT SANDRA REPORTS:
(hardware = TMC AI5VG+ 100mhz + Diamond Stealth III S540 Xtreme)
