First of all would like to say Merry Christmas to all at Techspot (especailly the ones who helped me with my problems )
And im back again with another problem lol I recently got 2G of ram (on top of my 1G bringing me up to 3G) off my parents. Now i put it in my machine and yes windows is reading it as 3geg but something is bothering me. My motherboard can support 4 ram sticks, and can use dual channel. Its not the fact that whatever i do i cant get the bios to read these as dual channel thats bothering me (cause i read it doesnt make much diference at all), tried all the ways it said, but its the fact that the bios says on boot something like this
DDR 200 , single channel , 64bit
DDR200?! lol all the sticks are pc3200 DDR 400. (the 2 new ones can go at 400mhz said on site) but i think the old ones can only go at 200mhz as thats the speed its always said it goes at (thts what everest said anyways. But it says that about these and these i know go at 400mhz). but now it says all the sticks are at 200mhz. I used a program called PX Wizard 2006 to make a report on the ram. it also says my mobo make an stats etc.. its attached to this message. I'm not to much an expert on ram so i Hope someone knows whats amiss here, cheers, and have a merry xmas :grinthumb
