Default Setting L2 Cache on vista.. not working..

Checking the set cache it says it's 2048 but my chip is 2x4096, I set in the registry value of 1000 hex which is 4096 but still the same settings apply in windows. Any ideas?

using vista x64 with a xeon 3220 chip

That's the guide I tried already lol..

I installed Advanced Vista Optimizer and it has a tweak in there to do that, and by default it was 4mb so.. Iono if it's 4mb total or 4mb x 2 like it should be..
