Question

You are in the process of configuring a new computer. The motherboard has four memory slots and supports dual-channel memory. You install two memory modules. When you boot the computer, the BIOS recognizes both modules, but the memory is not configured to run in dual-channel mode. What should you do

Answer 1

Place the modules in the appropriate slots on the motherboard.

Step-by-step explanation:

You must install memory in the correct slots to use dual-channel memory. The two slots may be next to one other or alternate depending on the motherboard. For the correct configuration, consult the motherboard manual. Dual-channel support is primarily determined by the motherboard (e.g., the memory controller), rather than the memory. With Rambus RAM, continuity modules are employed; if they were necessary on this system, none of the memory would have been identified. Memory timing is based on the CAS latency. If the system is unstable with the current memory timing settings, you may want to change the timing.
