I have 2X512MB on my DELL 400SC system. How do I know if they are running in Dual Channel mode?

Thanks

Check your mobo guide. Odds are if it is a newer machine and you have 4 dimm slots, you should have a stick of ram in the 1 & 3 slots to run at dual channel. If you dont have a manual look up your mobo online.

The mobo supports dual channel. Just want to know the memory I put in is, indeed, working in dual channel.

I've never had a Dell, but both my other systems say "Dual Channel Enabled" during the POST screen...

You can doublecheck by using CPU-Z program I believe. Search google for the link, I'm too lazy...haha :)

Edit: Ok I felt guilty... Go Here.
