Is there a BIOS option to set memory to dual channel?

I'm not sure if I'm running my memory in dual channel or not. Is there usually a BIOS option to set memory to dual channel or does the motherboard automatically set it when it reads the same memory in the correct memory banks?

It should automatically set it. When you're booting up it should say something like
"checking memory: 1048576KB complete
memory runs at dual channel interleaved"
at the POST screen.

It's not a BIOS option but rather depends on the slot locations in which you install your memory modules.
