I just purchased 1GB of the new OCZ4661024ELDCGER3-K (2x512MB) recently reviewed on Anandtech, and I can't get it to boot into dual channel mode. It works fine in single channel, but the motherboard never posts when I stick one module into DIMM1 (green channel A) and another in DIMM2 (purple channel B). The same thing happens when I try DIMM3 and DIMM4 (both combinations are allowed according to the manual). Does anyone have any suggestions? I looked on MSI's support site to see if there's a new BIOS revision that resolves the issue, but the new 1.3 BIOS does not seem to mention anything about it. Also, I tried dual channel mode with an old pair of Crucial DDR266, and I got the same result. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I got it to work! I had to manually set the timings in the Cell Menu in the BIOS, and now everything works! Thanks for your input SourTimes.
