    In order to achieve this, first you need a dual channel capable motherboard.

    AMD no good 2+1, must be 2+2 or 1+1 or 512+512 for dual channel

    With Intel you should be able to do it. If an article I read lately is right.

    Intel motherboards should support dual channels.

    Try using CPU-z instead of Everest.

    GPU-Z doesnt completely support the mobility HD3200 yet, so thats why it doesnt give complete information.
