Hi,

I wanted to upgrade my Asus F5R laptop from 1GB of memory to 2GB of memory, so I bought a Crucial 2x1GB set and installed it today (removing the 1GB of ram already in the system as there are only 2 slots). However when checking CPU-Z it says the memory is still running in single channel?

I couldn't see any option in the bios to change this, am I actually able to get the memory to run in dual channel or do you think its not supported? (I thought all new computers supported it?)

Its a Core Duo T2130 now with 2x1GB of DDR II 667MHz.

Cheers for any help.
 
There are only two slots on my laptop. Hum I will have a look on Asus website for bios upgrade, before I do has any one else got any thoughts?
 
Thanks for the replies. I have double checked the bios and looked at all options but none related to the memory. The memory which came with the laptop was 667MHz though so I am uncertain that the memory speed has anything to do with it. I have however sent Asus a support ticket to see what they say - they have been helpful in the past hehe.

Thanks again for your comments and any more are welcome.
