I just built a C2D system with an ASUS P5B-E mobo and 2x1GB sticks of Kingston HyperX CL4 750MHz@1.9V ram modules. The problem is that CPUZ shows that they work only in single channel mode. The OS recognised both of them though. I'm running them at 533MHz and haven't had time to fine tune the timings yet. Can you tell how I could solve this problem? Please help me :( ...THX

have you made sure they are in thew right slots. are they as described in the manual.

what does it say in the boot up screen?

Yes there are in the right place at least the manual does say so.
What exatcly do you mean with the boot up screen? If you ask if the are both stick checked there the answer is yes. Can you tell me if there could be an bios option to make them run in dual channel?

what i mean is the screen which comes up with your system info when you start it up. it will usually say if it is in dual channel or not.

Try putting the memory in the "wrong" slots. Sometimes the manuals get things backwards, so try all possible combinations.
