Your ram order is wrong!
Put the 2GB memory modules in the system and check for Dual-channel with CPU-z, once they are running Dual-channel you can add the other sticks.
You are mixing channels and sizes.
Hey guys
Ok i pulled all the ram and looked in the book and put a stick of 2gig in dimm 1 and 3 like the book said then booted the system with just the 4gigs and the board said it was running dual. I then added the other 2 1gig sticks to dimm 2 and 4 and booted to see it say dual channel, that was good.
I booted into windows and still only have 2gigs in the control panel/system and then checked cpu-z
Module 1 DDR2, PC2-6400 (400 MHz), 2048 MBytes, PDP Systems
Module 2 DDR2, PC2-6400 (400 MHz), 1024 MBytes, PDP Systems
Module 3 DDR2, PC2-6400 (400 MHz), 2048 MBytes, PDP Systems
Module 4 DDR2, PC2-6400 (400 MHz), 1024 MBytes, PDP Systems
This is what Everest reads out, so its at a lose as to why i only get 2gigs when in windows when i have 6..
Any ways thanks for your help guys, i will still try to work on this so keep the idea's come :D
