Memory Not Optimized error?

[Guest]

I have the GA-K8NSNXP-939 board with an AMD 64 3500+ CPU and on boot it
displays the message 'Memory Not Optimised', CPU clock 200MHz.

I'm using 2 * 512 Corsair XMS Pro (the ones with the LED's) and am not sure
if i should set the memory timings manually (and I've no idea what the
settings are either).

Would like to use Dual channel. The sticks are in slots 1 & 3. I've tried
2 & 4, won't boot. Correct amount of memory is being shown.

Incedently, in Windows (the System Properties to be exact), it says
'Physical Address Extension' What does that mean?

Thanks

I forgot to add that I've also tried putting the sticks in slots 1 & 2 but
all I get is beeps when switched on.

Ta.
