Dual channel + single channel.

I have two sticks of 256mb pc2700 RAM on my board now, and was wondering if I ordered one stick of 512, to total 1 gig would it hinder my performance? Since I have 2x256 in dual channel. Or would getting one more stick of 256 be better? I only have 3 slots on my board.  How would I arrange them? I read the manual, but people are telling me different things.
Specs:
MSI K7N2 Delta-ILSR
AMD 2500 xp
Mushkin 2 x's 256MB PC2700 (5-2-2-2)
MSI ti4200 64mb
WD 80GB 8MB Cache HDD
PSU 420 watt
4x 80mm fans
XP Home

Whoever told you that is on drugs and should be b*i*t*c*h slapped...on my -ILSR board I have 2 sticks of 256mb in 1&2 and a 512mb stick in slot 3 and when I boot up it does utilize dual channel mode...I tested this thoroughly back a while ago with different combinations and the results I got were clearly that it is enabled the way I had it...when I put the 512 and a 256 in 1&2 and a 256 in 3 then it disabled the dual channel...
My ASUS board does the same thing and says that Dual Channel is enabled in the same config at the boot screen...when I did the mixed test then it said that it was disabled.
So I don't know who you talked to but I wouldn't doubt if it was the same guy that either works on this forum or the guy that wrote the code for the temperature reading of the BIOS heheheh

  • Dual and Single Channel Mode

    Talking about dual channel and single channel. Is it a theory or is it really a big significant difference in performance between the two? Just curious

    Hi Richard,
    Thanks for the speedy reply. I'll go tinker around a little more and see what I can do with this board

  • Trouble with Mobo running on single channel

    I bought a pair of identical 1GB DDR2 PC2-5300 (667mhz) chips for my P4M890/900M2 motherboard and Windows 7 and my bios are only registering 1gb. CPU-Z is showing that I'm running on a single channel only, from what I've looked into, this problem seems to occur only if the chips aren't identical, but mine are; what gives? Anyone have an idea as to whats wrong?

    There is no mention of dual channel for this Via chipset:

  • K9n2 sli platinum will only boot/post when running single channel

    Hey
    I am having problems with the rig when i want memory to run Dual channel.
    I have tried all bios settings (or at least i think so) and all memory slot combination (or at least i think so) without any luck.
    When i put 2 sticks in dimm 1+2 I get nothing but a black screen.
    When I then turn my pc off, putting 1 stick in dimm 1 it will boot and I get the message: DQS training failed on previous boot.

    Some facts
    1 stick in dimm 1 = boot/post single channel

    1 stick in dimm 3 = boot/post single channel
    1 stick in dimm 4 = black screen

    Have you done that?:

    Have you tried taking the board out of the case and setting up outside on a flat anti-static surface? Maybe there is something shorting the back of the board where the DIMM slot is.
    If no change:
    Leave just one memory stick in 1st DIMM close to CPU socket,
    ensure that system is stable the flash to the latest BIOS ==>

  • DDR2 is seen as single channel???

    Thanks in advance for all of your help!
    I have a K9N Neo-F MB AM2 socket with a GB of OCZ DDR2 667MHz that is seen by the bios as single channel.  Is there a jumper  that I need to have connected or is there a bios setting that I need to change?  If it is a jumper which one is it?
    Thanks,

    Quote from: Fenix on 21-September-06, 22:15:43
    Do you have 1 stick or 2?
    If it is just one stick then it will only operate at single channel.  If you have 2 sticks then make sure that they are in the first 2 slots closest to your CPU (the slots should be colored differently) and then you will have dual channel.
    If this does not help then you will need to give us more info about your comp.  Like BIOS version, PSU ratings, etc.
    I agree unless the RAM is a single then it run's in single channel or IF you have both it could be that you put the wrong dimms which is also another possibility to run in single channel but not in dual channel...Refer to the mobo manual about the RAM setting. (Should be Dimm 1/3 or Dimm 2/4). Gd luck

    That works but the the game will not be in full screen, it will have an empty strip at the bottom.
    I actually found out what's the problem. I traced the stageWidth and stageHeight during resizing event. I found out that when it first resized, the stage width and height were the size with the notification bar. So when I pass the stage into startling, myStarling = new Starling(Game,stage), the stage is in the wrong size. For some reason, I can only get the correct stage width and height after the third resizing event.
    So now I need to restart Starling everytime a resizing event happened. It gives me the right result but I am not sure it is a good idea to do that.
    And thanks a lot for your time kglad~I really appriciate your help.

  • Currently Unavailable Message for a Single Channel

    Has anyone had this issue with a single channel?  The new FSC HD (584) that just came out last week worked for 1/2 a day then it started showing Currently Unavailable.  I had a technician out a few days later and he checked signal strength, changed all the connections at the splitter on every line and the channel started to show up again.  Two days later it went back to Currently Unavailable.   After 2 hours on the phone, an hour tech visit, an hour on online chat, researching all I could, etc. they have no clue what to do and now I have to wait for a technician to come out again in 7 days!!!!!   Gotta love Verizon!  
    I can't believe that there is no record of another customer having this issue in their tech support databases and someone can tell me something other than unplug the connection and plug it back in.  
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The technician changed out all of the connections into and out of the splitter. We also reconnected everything along with way (at the router, to the TVs and from the wall plates, etc.).   It worked fine for a day or two then went out again on all of the TVs.  Then this morning the channel is appearing again (without doing anything), but it's just a matter of time until it goes out again.   My question is I could understand a connection issue if it were all of the HD channels, but why on just this one (the newest one released about a week ago, doesn't happen on the previously released HD channel BET). 

  • Adding a single channel to my service?

    I am hoping to get an answer from someone in Verizon.  Can I add a single channel to my current lineup.  I just switched from Comcast and realize now that I don't get the NHL network.  I don't really want the entire sports package for $15.  Can you add single channels? Thanks

    Answer is no, you have to either upgrade to a higher tier or subscribe to the sports package. You're basically asking for ala carte channels (as walt said), while that is most of us would want, it just is not available.

  • Similar channel into single channel

    Dear All,
    Is there any way to merge the multiple similar channel to single channel without flattening layers.
    If pantone reflex blue 3 times is there means i need to merge it into single reflex blue channel.
    Pls help..
    Thank you,
    Joe

    Yes spot channel only and in Same document itself.
    And the above script need to run in Extend tool script?. Coz by this script there is no changes happening.
    By using Apply image can merge only two channels at a time. And after merged into a single channel source channel also remains.
    For ex,  Pantone Reflex Blue 1
          Pantone Reflex Blue 2
    Now i need to merge into 1. so after Merging by using Apply image
    Pantone Reflex Blue 1 2
    Pantone Reflex Blue 2 (But this is to be automatically deleted after merging, which is not possible by using Apply image)
    By using the script this needs to be recover
    1) In channel options
    Color indicates - Spot Color
    Color - Reflex Blue
    Solidity - 0%
    In same way i have taken the separation in different area of my image with same spot color.
    2) If process color are taken as spot channel that also need to merge with process channel (CMYK)
    Color indicates - Spot color
    Color - C100%
    Solidity - 0%
    If this is option selected in this channel to be merge with Cyan process color channel.
    By using Apply image option i used to give Multiply only and Opacity to 100%. Same need to apply this script. Pls help..
    Thank you,

  • Capture single channel in c++

    Hi,
    I'm trying to write a simple C++ routing (Visual C++) using the NIDSA functions that generates a sine wave and captures the response data.
    I can generate a sine wave using NIDSA_configure_source(), but I can't figure out how to get the response data.
    I tried calling NIDSA_configure_capture_buffer() and then NIDSA_read_capture_single_chan() but then I get an "Unknown Error" from NIDSA_read_capture_single_chan(). (Error code = 0xffffd5d0)
    Sample Code:
    rc = NI4551_ConfigureSource(1,0);
    // configure capture buffer
    rc = NI4551_ConfigureCaptureBuffer(numMeasurements);
    // read single channel
    rc = NI4551_ReadSingleChannel("0", numMeasurements, pResult);
    rc = NI4551_ConfigureSource(0,0);
    I don't know if I've got the correct functions to generate the sine wave and capture data or if I'm even calling them in the correct order.
    Is there any sample code out there??
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    You have specified a resource descriptor for the source task but when you are calling the capture commands you have not set up an initialize function that tells the program what board to use. For instance try using the NIDSA_init and then use that session to pass to the other function calls such as NIDSA_configure_capture_buffer() etc. I have attached some example code that reads from the board and demonstrates the analog triggering capabilities of the board. I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions after exploring these resources.

  • Multiple Endpoints Single Channel

    I am working on a project, that requires instancing of our
    flex application. One idea that I came up with was to allow for
    multiple urls to access the same data based on several variables.
    One key components for this idea to work is being able to use
    multiple endpoints with in the same channel in my
    services-config.xml file.
    Right now this is what my channel setup looks like.

    <instantiate-types>false</instantiate-types>
    </serialization>
    </properties>
    </channel-definition>
    </channels>

    one AP will only serve a single channel per spectrum. If you have multiple SSID they can be on the same channel with no issue, so long as you're not running more than 4-5. After that you start to cause issues inside your own network.
    If you absolutely had to run them on different channels, you would need multiple AP to accomplish that.
    But as I said, you shouldn't need to.

  • How to access single channels of multichannel acquisition?

    I want to access single channels of a multichannel acquisition in the Getting Started Analog Input.vi
    The purpose of this is to analyse i.e. do Min-Max or FFT on the individual channels. Can somebody help me to unbundle the data? Why does AI Read give Scaled Data while in other vi Waveform data?

    Hi,
    Getting Started Analog Input.vi uses AIRead.vi to read data from your hardware.
    1. This is from the help about AIRead.vi:
    "scaled data is a 2D array that contains analog input data in scaled data units. The data appears in columns, where each column contains the data for a single channel."
    So to access the single channel you must use "Functions->Array->Index Array.vi" to get data from your 2D array. All you need is to wire your 2D array to this VI and the specified number to the "column" input node.
    2. To change the Data type of array you receive from hardware you have to right-click on the AIRead.vi and choose any of 4 options (Binary Array, Scaled and Binary Arrays, Scaled Array, Waveform) from "Select Type" sub-menu.
    Good luck.
