You have have a stick of memory (both of the same size Mb wise) in each of the channels. One of my mother dual channel boards has 3 memory slots, but if I put sticks in all three it will revert to single channel and so the machine will run slightly slower. Also both sticks need to be the same speed. -- Guy Fawkes, the only man to enter the house's of Parliament with honest intentions, (he was going to blow them up!) Registered Linux user number 414240
