with this memory

When I run the 2 sticks in slots 1 and 3 or slots 2 and 4 in single channel mode Windows XP runs fine
When I run the 2 sticks in slots 1 and 2 or slots 3 and 4 in dual channel mode Windows XP crashes and I get blue screens of death
First question is, how much more performance am I going to get if I can figure out how to run dual channel mode and not crash, etc?
And second question is, how the hell do I fix this? Only memory settings I can adjust in the bios are either Auto or MaxMemoryClock for Timings, and with this option enabled I can speed it up anywhere from ddr2 400 to ddr2 800. I can also change the cas latency which I put at 5 since that's what the ocz page says it is.
