I'm using v.1.9 for the current CPU 3000+, because it's the best one for that. But for 4000+ CPU we're definitely going to use the latest v.7.1 which does correctly recognize this CPU as 4000+.
Right, that's exactly the problem. The board doesn't properly interpret the memory controller from the new CPU 4000+. Single vs. double sided shouldn't make any difference here. The board should allow to run 2 double-sided sticks totaling up to 2GB of either DDR400 or DDR333.
Thank you Nick for that Asus BIOS. Can you tell me exactly which board it is from so I can compare the specs? I'll keep that idea as the last resort, though, that is, when the Wiz runs out of ideas 
Asus K8V
im wondering if the single/double sided does make a difference sence lap top memory isnt quit the same as desktop memory.
Nick
I doubt that. This CPU is basically the same as Turion (also for laptops), and I'm sure that if we can get the BIOS updated to work with Turions, it will work as well with this one. Other MSI desktop boards have full support for Turions, meaning, they can definitely handle double-sided RAM.
I am off tommorow, and will have time to update everyone's threads.

the reason some boards don't support turions and the processor u have is because they don't support e core stepping, so add that and ur cool as a cucumber. any board that supports turion should support ur mobile athlon
so you're saying that by simply adding support for stepping code CABZE to our BIOS v.7.1 should fix the problem?
Sorry for late replies, somehow I never got notifications of the new posts
