Geil dual channel not showing as such ??????????

[marbles348]

Hello all, after my first build (thanks to alot of help from the forum users here), I'm having trouble with the memory not showing as dual-channel. I downloaded CPU-Z and it shows that i have 2 sticks in slots 1 and 3, total memory of 1 gig. The boxes on the right, "channel #" & "performance mode" are blank.
DFI Infinity NF UltraII-M2 mobo
Geil DDR2 667 2 x 512

Is the memory auto detected on the mobo as i believe it is, or do i have to set it in BIOS?

I don't have the knowledge of these things as of yet, learning everyday thanks to the good people of this forum.

Thanks for your assistance!

Try a different program such as PC Wizard 2007 if CPUZ doesn't show you the number of channels. Make sure you have put the DIMMs in the correct slots for dual-channel mode, following the instructions in your MB manual. If that doesn't work, try the other way (e.g. slots 1 & 2 instead of 1 & 3).
