2X/4X Gainward confusion

[deez]

I just got a Gainward GF2 Ti/450 on ASUS TUSL-2C mobo with P3 1100E@1309 and I'm not sure if I'm running in 2X or 4X mode. I have bios set to 4X and I'm not aware of any jumpers on the board or the card.

Sandra and several other utilities say its running in 2X mode

Memory clock=401 and core clock=250

I'm a bit confused

EDIT: There is either a hardware or driver problem with XP using latest detonator drivers. BSOD saying the video card is getting stuck in an infinite loop.

I've been using this version of drivers with my TNT2 card with no probs so I think its hardware

If Sandra says that it's running in 2x mode then it must be. Download RivaTuner from www.guru3d.com. I'm not sure if it's back up yet but you could try. RivaTuner can enable 4x mode. Give that a try.
