Dual Channel DDR

[Charlie]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

I just installed a new ASUS motherboard that supports dual channel and have
installed the proper SIMMs in the correct slots. Is there any way to see if
the system is actually operating in dual channel mode? Nothing is indicated
at boot up and the bios settings don't reference anything about running in
dual channel mode. Is there anything in Windows XP which would indicate
this?

Turn off the pretty Asus startup screen in the bios so you can look at the
boot text. You will see that it is in dual mode.
