K8NSNXP-939 wont boot in dual channel

[Guest]

I have just set up a K8NSNXP-939 with 2 512mb corsair ddr400 memory sticks.
If I put the memory in slots 1 & 2 or slots 3 & 4, the PC wont boot, just
gives regular long beeps during the post. If I put the memory in slots q nd
3, it boots up fine, but says memory not optimised because its not running
in dual channel mode.

Any ideas gratefully received.

Known problem. Flash upgrade the BIOS to F6
